Humourous idea

    I got a good idea!

    You know those people who send you e-mails and they just forward them on and when you get the e-mail you have to open about 50 other e-mails before you get to the actual message.

    Well, is there anyway you could send an e-mail to someone and they will be opening messags all day and never get to the actual message?

    Not unless you can put the email inside it's self ...

    Would have been a interesting idea a while ago - now one can set the virus scanner to block MSG attachments (EML were blocked on a long time ago) or change the levels of nested loops that would be scanned before the attachment would be quartantined through ..


    Hmm - to set an email as an attachment to it'self you would need to put in a negative offset - impossible unless you could pass a value so high that it wrapped around or you exploited some buffer over run, which is extrememly unlikley - what version of outlook do you use again ?
