My personal favorite was when I used an email function in my employers
web app to send an email from bgates at microsoft.com to our unix admins.
 Watching their reaction in irc was hilarious.  One of them was so mad
when I confessed to it that he wouldn't speak to me for the rest if
the day.

I'm digging our story time.  Anyone else have fun ones to share?


I one faked an entire email conversation between two academic researchers,
including replies to the original fake emails. Quite how this went down I'll
never know, but sometimes it's the not knowing that makes the story truly
memorable.
