Either she has set up a filter and the mail will be moved into a folder in which it won't be read or the she has noise in her inbox and will just mark it is read without reading it.\r\n\r\nThe only incidents I can imagine, where mails would be helpful and actually read, are:\r\n\r\n1. someone rapidly changes his MAC address (daily, weekly, whatever), in which case we will receive a lot of mails by that user\r\n2. an admin decides to do some investigations based on some suspicions and searches her mail archive for MAC change notifications\r\n\r\nIn both cases other means would be more appropriate. A MAC change event log for example could be used to rate limit MAC changes and could be queried by admins if investigations are necessary. \r\n\r\n"}}
