IITM mailing lists..

here we are..at one of the premium institutions in the country..and with the power of computers and internet at our disposal..and this is how we misuse it..

a few mailing lists were created by those in power to cater to the good of everyone who wanted to make important announcements or to send across messages to a select group of students..and this year's freshies have time and again proven that they are the studdest of 'em all..a few glimpses at the kind of mails received in the main mailing list (no, i am not giving you the mail id so that you too could get the chance to spam it)..

First this mail was sent by a kind soul requesting everyone not to use the lists for announcing stuff they lost...

contents of the mail

Hi everybody,
Quite a few of us seem bent upon making this email facility into a lost
and found forum. It makes sense if the item is of critical value like an
interview call letter. However spamming junta over articles ranging from
jewelery to umbrellas is I think a gross misuse. These articles if present
with a student ( in his\her hostel) rather than with the security, itself
should suggest a thin likelyhood of them making way to their rightful
owner.
Please do give some thought over this issue, for I believe it is just a
matter of time before some other enterprising person decide to share his
jokes and other interesting stuff with us all in this facility.
We could probably use the eboard as a place for posting these issues.
Junta please give it a thought.
Finally please dont reply to this mail!
regards

This mail was dated October 26 when the mailing lists were still in their infancy stage and were in use for only around 2 weeks or so i think...and following this, i guess junta, esepecially the f&^#$ing freshies decided that they must show their might and studness...and thus followed a slew of absolute s#*t.
