 		[QUESTION] Noob With A Noob Idea
Ok so im new to all this ARG stuff and what, but was wondering...

About the ladybee777 email address or any 'in game' email, the mailbox has to have some kind of bandwidth limit on it, if someone (or lots of people) were to add attachments to their emails then it would use up all the storage available. This would then block any more incoming emails. This could be used to check if the mailbox really is being constantly emptied, as claimed, and if it is emptied then we know someone is checking the emails. We would know its empty again as people could then send more emails.

Not sure what this would acomplish really, and its probably not in the spirit of the game, but its like 3:05AM now and im not quite awake. Confused

Comments on this would be appreciated...

My comment is this:

No way - we've already seen many of our emails get used and spat back to us so far, so your musings on the topic have already been addressed.

Flooding a hotmail account would just be bad behavior at this point. Smile

Well, you asked ...
