Of the thousands of people on the bedlam list, I only saw about 30 or 40
such messages (as they trickled in eventually). So the idiot percentage was
in the 1% range. (Actually, a lot of these folks were not necessarily idiots
but rather just folks new to Microsoft -- new employees, vendors, etc.) The
problem was that adding 40 messages to everyone's mailbox probably doubled
the overall mail traffic, and the mail servers no longer were able to keep
up.
