Hi Rob, I don't want to fix anything (anyone for that matter). I was just curious to know if:
- this kind of things exist somewhere (that could give a bad habit to some people) - I can mess with the nerves of people by randomizing the order of recipients. I have absolutely no intent to comply with this kind of ridiculous demands from people to be "properly ranked" as a prestigious email recipient. I have the required authority to put an end to these demands, I'm not worry at all ;) Cheers, patpro July 4, 2022 4:12 PM, "Rob McGee" <r...@nodns4.us> wrote: > On 2022-07-04 00:21, pat...@patpro.net wrote: > >> Few days ago I've stumbled on this gem: >> https://twitter.com/gabsmashh/status/1542154330836553728 > > This is not a technical problem that can be fixed.
