Stupid user storm...day 2. by rhinobird2008-02-13 05:47:21
  I remember that happening in college by imrambi 2008-02-13 05:58:22
The famous "keys" email. (Someone lost their keys, and sent an email to the entire campus). The network admins let it go for awhile hoping it would stop. Then they sent an email saying that whoever continued would have their account disable.

People continued, and I know a few people that had to talk with Computer Services division to have their account reenabled.

Granted for them to sent an email to the entire campus, they have to have everyone in the to list (as they do not have privileges to the campus wide alias), which adds a good size to the email.

That was always interesting watch the email storm via pop3 and not Groupwise.
