QOTD

Anyone who knows anything about modern e-mail servers knows that "lost" e-mails in a commercial setting is complete B.S.. "Bagdad Bob" Carney having stepped down, here's an offering of an excuse from Twitter:
Lois Lerner's emails were destroyed in a digital riot brought on by an inflammatory VA video put out by tea party gun owners.

Makes as much sense as anything the government has told us recently.

    "Anyone who knows anything about modern e-mail servers knows that "lost" e-mails in a commercial setting is complete B.S.."

    That statement is more proof that moon-battery and idiotarianism aren't limited to the Left.

    Should I believe some partisan blogger citing some glib Twat, er, Twit, er, Tweet -- instead of my own lying experience as a Microsoft Exchange e-mail administrator? I saw a lot of bad I.T. practices when I worked for the state government.

    Or are you suggesting that government, which is so incompetent at everything else, are super-geniuses when it comes to information technology?

    Bad "best practices" in government IT mean that lost e-mails are no surprise.
