So I sent a personal email from my work address to my girlfriend (didnt switch to hotmail from work on the iphone).
Assume the contents were fairly bad. A 6 or 7/10 in terms of how bad they were, but nothing too explicit.
Am I worrying for no reason? Any IT people here that can put my mind at ease. Just 3 images, no text.
Can't believe I was this stupid. Long day....

HR may be giving you call for sending dick pics from your corporate email
One a scale of 1-10 how likely do you think that is and what do you think the consequences are?
You never know. Have a family member who works in IT at large bank he says amount of shit people send via corp emails is unbelievable. Told a story once about someone complaining of slow bandwidth, after looking into it the guy was apparently streaming porn all day slowing the down the servers.
What's your scale of 1-10 like? Is 10 full on bestiality and 5 is plain old missionary so 6/7 is doggie? Then that's bad. If 6/7 is just a stupid face pic like you want to fuck her, then it's probably just embarrassing.
I think IT people will get a bigger laugh that you have hotmail still.
Artistic but nothing shown nudity, just me.
Hahaha.... I'm now intrigued to know what kind of weird shit you're sending.
lol artistic. If you're at a BB or other large institution I may preemptively ask your boss, especially if he or she is someone you can talk to. But I've been working in small places since basically the dawn of the email monitoring era and it wouldn't matter in the places I've worked, so others who are more in the know about large co's would have a better idea than I. It would actually be a point of amusement in the places I've worked.
My question: why use email rather than text?
quote of the week right there
What a lovely explanation. +1
Anyway, I hope nothing happens. Maybe if you keep rockin your work no one's gonna bring that up. Good luck!
Oh I didn't realize we had an artist on our hands.
You're fine until your girlfriend sends back nudes.
My largest concern would be who she sends this to when you break up. Make sure she has deleted it.
Probably nothing to worry about but if you want to preempt any possible situation tell your direct manager, who will probably laugh uncontrollably and then tell you to get back to work
Oh, man, these games are fun. Every time I get a new job, I introduce this game to my bosses: I slide a picture on their desk before they come in and I autograph it so they know it's from me. They have to guess if it's my wien or the tip of my pinky finger.
What kind of penor do you have?
Doctor says I'm normal...
Hotmail
You must be over the age of 25 because who the hell would send that kind of stuff via email. Secondly, dude... WTF. Why are you sending dick pics at all??
Asshole for front paging this but I'm glad you've all had a good laugh.
Just giving you shit because it's fun to see you're a Certified User so it's nice knowing you're not an 18 year old asking bullshit (and it's funny because most of the people replying here are also- probably means most of us have done something similar...).
But I'd honestly say this is one of the multiple reasons to always have a personal phone and not just a work phone, and in your case to have international coverage. I've done international stuff for the last 15 years and it's always good to have an extra phone no matter the cost. And while losing one phone isn't enough of a reason, there are always pornographic scenarios, as if porn's not enough of a reason. When one is married, and doesn't screw other women, and stuck with a bunch of Chinese businessmen for two weeks in Shenzhen and HK when they bring the women around and one says no? One definitely does not want to deal with that on the company laptop or iPhone back at the hotel room. God bless these big screen smart phones.
This thread is gold. This comment as well - I'm dying.
Make sure you attached the disclaimer then you should be okay
Artist? Not wearing much? No dick pics? Rest assured WSO, I found OP's picture! Thanks to his IT department.
My guess is you will be fine.
Here is the thing, there are tons of emails sent out during business hours. So much so that no one could possibly go thru them all. Unless you flagged the system by sending out a virus or using certain keywords it won't show up on anyone's radar.
Unless you accidentally sent it to a co-worker and they freak out and report you no one is going to dig into your email history.
Just look at the CIA director email hack. The guy was forwarding emails to his AOL account and no one at the CIA was aware and they would be one of the few agencies (NSA,FBI etc) to monitor every email that comes in and out.
I guess they don't though probably because there are so few people who would get security clearance high enough to read the emails in the first place.
Disclaimer: I work on the software development side. I am not a network engineer, however my Dad is a network engineer and I have heard the stories of what people get away with.
There is not knowing this was going on, and then there is "I don't see anything....wink wink". In this case it's the latter.
lol hotmail.
People still use AOL too...
OP, do you use AIM by any chance?
probably a lot of X's and sporadic cApItAliZaTiOn in his email address tOoOoOoOoOoOoO
I still use Hotmail. You sheeps keep following the herd with Gmail.
When you move out of your parents basement you won't be able to use their 100 free hours of AOL anymore
I might need to buy a Frisbee then!?
My parents are my best friends. I love them.
Pic or it didn't happen
What you should do is send dick pics and see what happens, let's see how far you can go before anyone says anything!
I thought this is what Snapchat was invented for?
Sweet infant baby Jesus, this is comedy gold.
I never sent out pictures of myself to anyone from work address but had an ex and just random guys that I met sending me their explicit images to my work address! I was mortified when they told me about it, but these emails never got through to my inbox. Must have been filtered. I'm in IBD at BB.
Random guys you met? Did you give them your card as they left your apartment?
