  Speechless or clueless?

If you are able to read a blog (which clearly you are), you must have a rough grasp of both IT and the English language. Do, please, congratulate yourself – because this is a very rare combination of skills. So rare, in fact, that the Human Resources department at my Internet Service Provider had a tough choice to make. “Do we employ someone who understands the Internet? Or do we employ someone who can make themselves understood by another human being?” Hmm. Tricky.

They went for the first option and hence, today, I received this helpful advice by email. Well, it might be advice. For all I know, it might be a warning. Or a birthday card, or something. It reads as follows…

“The bouncedrop function behaves in a similar fashion to the bounce and fbounce, when the bounedrop action sends an email it will not deliver the original message from the sender as where the bounce and fbounce will still allow the message into the inbox.”

My response was: Great! / Oh no! / Thank you! (delete as appropriate)
