I found this very moving. Simply told, this is the story of one man's time in the US Navy during WW2.

Spam, Spam, Spam........
For a the last week , we have been having emails bounced from a friend who we've known for years.. They were receiving emails from others, but not ours.
Time to dig out the deerstalker and meerschaum.......
It transpires that an intermediate company has decide that all emails from our ISP sent to the email servers of our friend's ISP are 'spam' even though we both know that they are not. Neither of the ISPs will accept responsibility and refuse to do anything to resolve the situation.
So if you are with Wanadoo, I'm afraid you can't email any NTLworld addresses. If you're with NTLworld, you can still send to people with Wanadoo, you just won't get any reply.
Spam emails are a serious problem, I get hundreds every day but this heavy handed approach by a mainstream ISP, NTLworld, is not justified. Let's hope the problem resolves itself sooner rather than later.
Time to roll out the web based email addresses that I keep for travelling: hotmail, gmail or yahoo ...
