mail bomb          To send, or urge others to send, massive amounts       of {electronic mail} to a single system or person, with intent       to crash or {spam} the recipient's system.   A successful mail       bomb may cause the victim's {disk quota} to be exhausted, the       disk holding his mailbox to fill up, or his computer to spend       a large proportion of its time processing mail.          Mail-bombing is sometimes done in retaliation against someone       persistently abusing {Usenet} and violating {netiquette}.       While it may inconvenience the intended victim (if they gave       their real address), it will probably also inconvenience other       users and administrators of the computers and networks       involved.   Mailbombing is thus a serious offense itself.          See {netiquette} for the correct way to respond to perceived       violations.          Compare {letterbomb}, {nastygram}.          [{Jargon File}]          (1995-04-04)
