    I need to send that to our accountant in printed form. I can’t legally mail it to him.

    This is exactly the sort of thing I meant by “someone being bad at computers”. That someone might be a government regulator in this case.

      Ah, I see. It sounded more like “someone doesn’t know how to just mail something.”

      Are you going to pay for all the systems and processes that need to change to get away from the paper trail?

        If the people responsible for whatever paper trail requirement there is in Dojan’s company or legal jurisdiction haven’t figured out some time in the past quarter century that this internet thing isn’t a passing fad, and started using digital communications and recordkeeping in a way that offsets its own cost in a relatively short period of time, the person or organization responsible for that decision is bad at computers.
