The payroll system we use sends a message every month with the subject:

RUN DO NOT REPLY

which always puts me in mind of the radioactive Cobalt canisters, DROP AND RUN.

I don't know what the emails contain, because they're way down in my inbox by the time I've decided it's probably safe to walk back to my computer.
