The Great 'Reply-All' DWAN Fiasco of 2017

[Vell]

I think it was about 2017 when an innocuous survey on the DWAN lead to an immense reply-all fiasco where everyone from the lowest NCMs to highest officers got tied up in an accidental DWAN-wide reply-all email chain complete with memes, jokes and just a dash of extremely unimpressed (and unusually ignored) very upper leadership.

If anyone still has that chain and is willing to post it here, it would be greatly appreciated. I moved on to civilian IT but the memory of that email chain lives on!

Amateurs - some time in 2006 or 2007, somebody who was retiring in Dec just before the break sent an email out to everyone in the address book noting their enjoyable career and wishing everyone the best. And of course, in full silly season festive mood, everyone hit reply all. Apparently that can really chew up bandwidth and cause Admins to have a stroke.
