I hadn't realized that the BOFH stuff was so institutionalized. I had a few
of the emails but to see entire web sites of the stuff is pretty funny.

I have to thank the big guy above for never putting me in this position. The
temptation might be more than I could handle   ;-)

It's bad enough being sysadmin for some of my clients - when I had to clean
out one of their backlogged mail servers because of a 'luser' sending an
e-mail with a 40mb graphic file attachment to a non-existent mail account, I
ended up reading an email that one of the partners is having an affair.

What is it about email that makes people think that it's private?
