It is my practice to give out usually two or three warnings prior to taking
any "action" with the sysop (or feed point). Since not everyone has netmail
access, there is no way to guarantee that a person would receive a netmailed
warning. And you are still posting contrary to the echo's rules by
continuing this discussion in the echo instead of via Netmail.

They are autoposted into the echo on the 15th and 30th of every month.
Depending on when the system you are calling started getting it's feed, there
is a good chance that a copy should be in the old messages. If not, a copy
will be autoposted in a few days.
WM> Thank you for your kind reply.
Any time.

BTW, The echo's rules also do not allow the use of the "high ascii"
characters in messages. This is due to the fact that not all computers that
may be used can properly handle them. And that includes "tag lines".
