So, yesterday, I spot someone trying to log into our mail server, with account names like 'guest' and 'admin'. Hmmm, I think, and note it down in case it goes any further.
This morning, someone phones up and says we've been sending him several hundred spams per day. "Not us," says the boss. "I'll forward you a couple," he replies.
We get his email, and find they've all been sent to an address that's at one of our domains, that we forward on to him. So *of course* they have passed through our server on the way, you twat. Because our server handles *all* email to that address. Including spam, of course. Not to mention that he was the chap trying to log into our server yesterday, too.
Me to the boss: "Can I write a reply to him? I want to say: 'Learn how to read email headers, you poxy fule! And what the hell were you trying to do, haX0ring our machine or something?'"
The boss to me: "This is why I don't let you talk to our clients"

Sign him up for a few hotmail accounts, and forward those to his domain. Then he'll *really* know what Spam is about!

The guy from our IT firm seemed like a fairly diligent fellow until he discovered we had some mutual acquaintances from the London Schmindie Scene. Now he can't come in without saying "The Family Cat, eh?!?! What a great band!! Cracking b-side on their third single!! Midway Still eh?!?! A-a-and THOUSAND YARD STARE!!!" And he won't shut up.
He runs this ph34rsome website too: http://snow.prohosting.com/ukband/index.htm
