Rival's note might have hurt Ciena
Firm alleges e-mail traced to Lucent went to merger partner; False accusation alleged; Tellabs got message before releasing new terms, deal called off

By Mark Ribbing
Sun Staff

The company said yesterday that with the help of "an independent source," it traced the e-mail, which was sent to Tellabs Inc., to a Lucent Technologies Inc. facility in Murray Hill, N.J.

"We have verified this and an independent source has also verified this. We are 100 percent confident," said Daniel P. McCurdy, Ciena's vice president for marketing and strategic transactions.

McCurdy said the message was sent to Tellabs at 3:47 a.m. Aug. 28, just hours before Tellabs and Ciena announced the renegotiation of their troubled merger.
