Do Not Let Idiots Send Emails

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Seriously, people that do not know how to correctly send emails to a list of people, should get banned from the Internet! It just happened, that my university has sent out a reminder for a student survey. Okay, I am fine with the fact, that they sent it to my private address. But why on hell, has the person put ALL private email addresses in the CC-field? Now I have a list of 120 computer science students, that will finish their studies and are looking for a job. It is definitely NOT OKAY to put more than 1 email address in a CC-field, if the email goes outside of your organization. Let me know, if you need to hire a good and recent computer science graduate. I know got some contacts!

I had the exact same thought when I received that e-mail. Now I have a good reason to not fill out the survey.

  i answered the person’s email with this:
  
  Darf ich Sie in Zukunft bitte bitten, meine _private_ E-Mailadressen nicht an _ALLE_ zu versenden? Das ist keine freundliche Netiquette.
