Errors? Omissions? Misattributions? Your favorite class not here? Then please contribute to the zoo as you see fit by signing up and clicking on the edit links. Please include references, or better yet links to papers if available.
To create a new class, click on the edit link of the class before or after the one that you want to add and copy the format of that class. (The classes are alphabetized by their tag names.) Then add the class to the table of contents and increment the total number of classes. After this, you can use the side edit links to edit the individual sections. For more on using the wiki language, see our simple wiki help page.
If you would like to contribute but feel unable to make the updates yourself, email the zookeeper at scott at scottaaronson.com.

Back hole mailboxes
It appears there is a new kind of mailboxes and I suspect they run on Microsoft Exchange standard (????) servers.
What is a black hole mailbox? Simple. The ones which the attached owner does not respond to your emails or to anyone who that persons identifies as threat or whatever.
I don't care what the reasons are.
Reply to your business emails.
