Re: IRS sending warning notes, violating ECPA?


I've emailed him directly, both on the net, and on fidonet before he found his way 
here. I didn't get it. Kinda suprised at that actually, and a bit disappointed.

Think if I send the scum who sent the note to everyone, it would recosider putting me 
on it's "enemies list"?
