I would, however like to point out that you (or your predecessor[s]) voluntarily subscribed to this list in the first place. A single polite 'please unsubscribe me' request would have sufficed.

Hmm, "Please remove" messages addressed to Alloy and Hotwired - I guess some Korean Army Officer found out one of his/her staff had taste beyond their rights. ;-) Paul.

The second post convinced me otherwise.

Jordan" Date: Wed, 21 Aug 1996 08:18:58 -0400 Subject: Alloy: USG Addresses - FYI Paul, Just an FYI about those messages re: military addresses. It may not have been "S2" him/herself sending you those messages. One of my sisters works at a US military installation in New Jersey (fruit juice everywhere.) I had been sending her the occasional sisterly message, but, rather suddenly, she was informed that she would be fired if any personal messages were found coming to or going from her account. From what she has found out, 1) someone has been downloading some rather nasty bits off the 'Net using a US military account, and 2) there are folks in the Pentagon concerned about Internet security issues. The systems operator at that installation either generated that message when reviewing incoming messages or it was automatically generated. It's for the protection of the account holder's job, too, since the military is taking this "just one more and you're fired" thing pretty seriously. Sorry for the non-Dolby stuff there (although I *did* get my TMDR content in Sentence #3. Ha!) Cheers, Melissa J. - ----------------- Melissa R.
