Grandpa gets a digital camera and just has to send everyone a
couple of 98meg .tiff or .bmp images of the grandchildren. The
user in the `To:' field doesn't realize that he has to wait a
few hours for all that crap to download so he disconnects before
it finishes. Next thing you know tech support gets a call,
"What's wrong with your email? I can't get my mail.".
