That is a decision each person must make individually. > Some of us realize that it's not possible to be fu;lly "private" on the > internet, and will take our chaces of getting scammed-spammed-whatever. > Others for various reasons will not, feeling that even though *no* email is > totally immune from unintended access the chances of that are less when > posting offlist. { I expect that most. who post from their workplaces > realize this---the rest of us may not have until it was pointed out. But as > an article in our Dayton paper today pointed out, "if you want mail to be > private, buy a stamp and send it the old fashioned way..." > > I have noticed a drop in mail volume today---even compared to most > Sundays.
