Print. It gets there.

March 29th, 2007

I just found out that an email I'd sent to someone didn't get there. My email signature has the word “sex” in it – as in Sussex, the town where my company is located. The recipient's email filter blocked the message because they thought it was about sex.

Do you know how much email gets blocked? A hell of a lot of it.

On the other hand, everything that the postman puts in my mailbox passes through my hands. I may not have asked for it, I may not value it, but it gets there.
