Not legitimately.  NO-ONE is EVER FORCED to carry ANY echomail area against
their will.

PE>> All that is allowed to be done is that you request for his feed to be cut.

RS> Pity we were actually discussing what happens when that request is ignored.

You request that person's uplink to cut the feed, and so on and so forth
until you finally end up cutting your own feed, which is the only thing you
are REALLY allowed to do.  BFN.  Paul.
