Eh, I think ESR read *way* too much into that. That letter was a 100% stock
templated "feeler" email. My wife got that exact same email the other day
with the exception that it was a different recruiter. The rest of the email
was verbatim. She was a little curious so called and asked a few questions.
Turns out that the emails are sent out automatically based on some keywords
they find in online resumes and the like. The people that respond then go
through an interview with that level of recruiter and if that goes well, they
are entered into the official hiring channel (many more interviews, tests,
etc).

So they weren't directly recruiting him and obviously had no idea (nor did
they care) who he was. And being "[Microsoft's] worse enemy"? <rolls eyes>
