Gotta love working for a State Dept.

[vevois23]

Email goes out to a section within the West Palm office, but sender includes an address that sends it to the entire department. Everyone office across the state proceeds to lose their damn mind and hits "Reply All" to say they were sent the email in error. The second wave was people hitting "Reply all" to tell people not to respond via "Reply all" about 100 emails later the insanity seems to have stopped.

That happens in just about any business where email is used.

But it is quite annoying.

I love the "reply all" numbskulls. For some reason I find them really entertaining.

Happened at a large corporation and they had to shut down all emails for the rest of the day.

Same exact scenario.

It happened on a Deadspin NCAA bracket email last year. Someone accidentally sent out a broadcast email to everyone's email address that signed up. Someone else then hit "reply all" to not get the emails any more, which set off a pretty extraordinary chain of entertaining emails. There's still 5 or 6 emails that will go out around major sporting events and holidays.

 

[jeffy]

While this isn't a "reply all" scenario, we have an email address prefaced with a pound sign (established before twitter hashtags) that is intended to send to everyone across the state in our department, which encompasses some 4000 employees. It used to be that anyone could send to it from an internal email account, and that was supposedly it. Well, one morning we came in and there was an email sent to that address from an external email account. Someone whose last day was the previous day, and who had not left on such good terms, had sent an email blast to that account virtually detailing his entire situation and using very colorful language describing why several of his supervisors were real dicks. It was entertaining reading. I didn't know any of the people involved. Wish I would have saved it.

Of course, that tagged account has been locked down and nobody except the real high ups can send to it now. I'm sure all the small workgroup emails are locked down as well.

When this happens, I also love the resulting cross-firing blasts saying "remove me from this thread."

The second wave was people hitting "Reply all" to tell people not to respond via "Reply all" about 100 emails later the insanity seems to have stopped.

Pfft.
When I worked at the State Dept I just maintained my own email server.
That way I could quickly implement subject line spam filters to keep you peons from bugging me.

But it is quite annoying.

I don't understand why email programs don't take "Reply All" off of the big buttons on the top thread, or at LEAST move it a couple spaces away from the "Reply" button. I just don't understand.
