I suspect that repeating myself for your benefit would probably be defined
as "lecturing", so I won't. The answer to your question can be found in
the archives. Just search on my address, I'm sure there's a message or two
in there.
Having _never_ threatened anyone with ejection from the list, I'm at a loss
as to how you could possibly perceive my taking the initiative to deal with
this viral problem some sort of threat to your continued participation on
this list. Surely, you must realize that if I were the type of person to
censor posts, and were to extend any authority to that (which I do not),
drivel such as your post wouldn't reach the list in the first place?
Furthermore, contrary to a claim you made in a subsequent post, I have NO
policy of not permitting offlist messages, nor do I have any idea where you
could have even come up with that claim. Anyone with at least three
healthy synapses to spare can manage an offlist reply by simply taking my
address and placing it in the To: field of their message, even if I have a
Reply-To: of the list to encourage onlist responses while simultaniously
discouraging unnecessary carbon copies, which are the hallmark of a lazy
reply procedure.
There is ZERO evidence that you even tried to send anything from your
swbell broadband account (from which you are posting to this list directly,
rather than through your ISP mailserver) before making your claim (I
presume so that you could seem justified in sending your flame onlist), and
although the source IP from which your email is sent appears on multiple
DNSBLs (!), no such message was received or rejected from you by my server
in the past 24 hours.
Before you sit there and accuse me of riding a high horse, I suggest you
take a look at who is sitting in your saddle.
