Do you really spend 15 minutes making someone wait around while you're trying to conduct business that should only take a few minutes? Not to mention having to give instructions to some technically clueless, and uninterested person, about the hoops they have to jump through for an email to get through to them. That's right up there with those "press 1 for accounts, press 2 for sales, repeatedly press 5 for compaints and join the queue." And then there's the converse, of when you're trying to do business with someone else, and their (managed by someone else) anti-spam techniques get in the way of you mailing them. To anyone who suggests that email shouldn't be instant (just a few seconds), they deserve a thoroughly good drubbing with a clue by four for degrading mail services. I'm yet to see an anti-spam system that doesn't shit me off. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
