Until you wrote this, I did not realize that he harvested the emails
from another list. When you said that he "spammed [you] and everyone
else on another private list," I misunderstood and assumed that meant he
spammed the list, which others apparently also did. Now that I've gone
back and re-read your message, it's clear, but it was easy to mis-read,
especially since I was just skimming through this thread.
