My bus is the shortest bus of all.
Jul. 27th, 2007 05:51 pmHad to email some hundred users to let them know that the particular phone numbers they are using are going away, and they should select from the vast smorgasbord of our other modem numbers for their dialup needs. This is not a big whoop; some few years ago I'd banged together a quick script that takes a list of addresses, a file containing a form letter, asks a few questions about headers, and bang! all are mailed yay.
Only it's been awhile since I used it, and I failed at reading comprehension, and therefore the list of users got fed as the form letter and the form letter got fed as the list of users.
Sole saving grace: the words in a form letter about dialup numbers are not words commonly chosen as usernames (even by our wacky populace).
