- The SEND-to-self quota loophole has been a favorite trick here, too. Some
- time ago, Kim Schacher, from whom I inherited the Postmaster job last year,
- cooked up a utility to spot these "hyperspaced" (as they've become known
- locally) files. It's a simple bit of DCL to root through the most recent
- link logs and find cases where source = destination. The job runs
- periodically, and the system manager gets the reports. Simple, but
- effective.
-
- (Note: For best results, be sure your computer use policy covers this sort
- of misbehavior.)
-
- If anyone would like to see a copy of the procedure, just drop me a line.
