>I am just curious. Last week someone started to send a chain letter (e-mail) that alleged MS and AOL would pay x amount for each person the letter was fowarded to. Over the course of a couple of days, our e-mail system handled 80k+ copies of this junk letter. How many other orgs got hit with this thing?

We have been hit more than once. Ain't AOL a wonderful service?!?! It seems to me most of the cyber junk comes from there. No offense to AOL subscribers [including my wife], but AOL sucks except for the Stock portfolio capability. Otherwise, get a real ISP.
