You know Ross...you are doing one Hell of a job of clouding the
issue....and this one has NOTHING to do with my disagreement with your
methods.

Once again, since you miss the point....I really don't care if folks bounce
messages from the echolist...as long as they don't call me a name, label me
as a spammer or fill my mail box with uninvited mail(hmmmm, could that mean
they are spamming me?) when they employ their automatic systems.

Try and get it straight Ross....it's not that difficult to understand.

False negatives/positives that inaccurately label someone as a spammer and
tell them to go to hell are not something that can be excused because they
are automated.
