USE OF EMAIL AND THE INTERNET
Inappropriate use of e-mail includes, but is not limited to, sending or forwarding:
*Information related to political materials, activities or causes unless sanctioned or permitted by the State of Delaware.
*Unauthorized or inappropriate mass distribution of communication.
*Any other materials that would be improper under this policy or other State of Delaware policies.

We'll toss this one scenario out there, just for kicks.
A state employee or contracter with access to the state's email system would be violating the state's acceptable use policy if they spammed my teachers, paras, principals, nurses, secretaries, cafe and maintenance workers using an email list generated by accessing the state's global email settings as provided through their employment with the state.
Well, how the hell would one know for sure how a list was generated? The state's DTI guy could easily view the sender's activity to determine whether or not he/she/it was misusing the state's system. Would never happen, right?
Well, just for kicks, what if a candidate did violate the acceptable use policy?
Any inappropriate use of State communications and computer systems may be grounds for discipline up to and including dismissal based on the just cause standard set forth by Merit Rules, or collective bargaining agreement, whichever is applicable to the subject employee.
Exempt employees shall be subject to appropriate discipline without recourse, except as provided by law.http://bidcondocs.delaware.gov/HSS/HSS_11048_Addend1B-AcceptUse.pdfAcceptable use policy for communications
