A basic rule of business computer usage: the higher up in management a
person is, the less likely they are to soil their fingers on a keyboard.
I disagree. Scott McNealy reads his email. I know this for a fact.
Most CEO's of small companies (like Cayman) read their email.
I think you'd be suprised if you tried "telnet xxx.com 25; VRFY <ceo-name>".
That doesn't tell you if the CEO reads his/her mail, or if an
assistant reads it for him/her.
