- A friend of mine has recently discovered that in the mail directory of
- his LAN account there is a 2-byte file that updates itself each time
- he logs in and comes back after he deletes it. The file contains only
- one Vertical Tabulation symbol (decimal 11, Hex 0B). He asked a few
- other LAN users and they all found the same file in their mail
- directories. They suspect that their mail is monitored by the LAN
- supervisor. Is it possible?
