A note popped into my work inbox the other morning from a client in Australia:
I am having issues with my company Outlook and can’t seem to send emails to external email addresses. I am using my Hotmail account for the time being.
It just struck me that that *really* wouldn’t be an option for me if my work account ever went down! Seeing my ‘abel1234@’ address would no doubt lead them to run a search on it out of curiosity – and my daytime cover as a sweet, innocent businessman would be blown. Still, I suspect it would ensure that they settled their bills on time…

PS my phone’s auto-correct helpfully changed the title of this post to read: “The misuse of Hitachi”. Surely no girls out there would ever use a Magic Wand for naughty purposes?! But funny how BlackBerry would jump to that conclusion – and program it into their software…
That “PS” will keep me in a good mood all day.
on the subject of hotmail – did you rcv the email I sent you?
