Look, I know full well how to hit delete. Not only that but I'm even
intelligent enough to set up filters and blocks to keep from getting
mail I don't want. {{ohmigod!!}}
The *entire* point of this ridiculous exercise is to inform *him* that
it is *not okay* to spam people simply because you need to get a survey
done. I *ignored* his spam. When he posted here as well, I felt it
necessary to point out to him that his actions were wrong. If you can't
figure that out, then I can't help you.
Again, if you had actually *read* what I posted, you *should* have
picked up on the fact that he spammed *individually* an entire list of
people who are all on a private list. He obviously harvested that list
somehow. He *did not* spam the list. He doesn't have rights to post,
because the list is *private*. (I cannot believe I'm actually having to
explain this on *this* list!!)
BTW, "sophisticated people" don't just hit delete, because they
understand the impact that spam has on the Internet. And what happened
to your "replies to /dev/null" anyway?
That's where any from you or the list on this topic will go now. I'm
done trying to explain stuff that members of this list should understand
already.
Sheesh!!
