Do you seriously expect a marketing VP to write perl?
no. i expect someone to tell the marketing vp that emailing large documents is "wrong" and that someone will fedex them some floppies. or a zip disk. or a jaz disk. or a dlt tape containing a bzip2'ed copy of a hpodc cpio archive. in halfword swapped format. :)
but not email.
my opinion.
How about if it absolutely, positively has to be there within the hour? The nifty thing about email is that it has cost Fedex and the other shipping companies an untold amount of business. It has contributed to the increase in productivity Greenspan likes to mention. Limiting such service is not a good idea IMHO. --Mitch NetSide
