It would take a lot less time (and effort and resources) to read mail if one didn't have to scroll through 450 or
so lines of headers and "me too" forwarded messages, and the quoted part of the message was kept "to the
point". Besides, some people actually have to pay for e-mail. If your looking to make the point that this
message has been passed on to everyone in the known universe, you should leave a counter with
instructions to increment it each time it is forwarded.
Example:
This message has been sent 1,124 times. Please increment this number by 1 and send it to everyone you
know!
Anyway, I hate chain letters (can you tell?) for any purpose.
Thank you,
