His behaviour is not an issue, unless we choose to make it an issue.  
Did these people leave because they couldn't figure out how to set up a 
filter or because they just couldn't resist reading his replies (and 
spent too much time doing so)? Actually I don't really care. 

Len, I can't believe you actually wasted the time to set up this poll in 
the first place. I suggest that you immediately stop facilitating the 
discussion of this non-issue. What it really comes down to is the simple 
fact that it is up to the individual to either simply ignore, or in 
extreme cases filter any other sort of unwanted mail from their inboxes 
themselves. I don't need or expect anyone else to do that for me.

Please ignore the crybabies and keep this list O P E N and unmoderated!
