Take a look at rec.aquaria.marine.reefs. Last time I checked, there was
some bozo with one of those random message & address generators putting
out several hundred messages a day, plus at least one other guy posting
profane insults using other people's return adresses. Perhaps you've
figured out how to get T-bird to do some things that I can't get it to
do, but I found no way to filter out the random messages (filtering on
an IP address is the only thing I could think of). And one could get
fired or sued for some of the things the other guy was posting. It would
take a long time to prove that you didn't do it (if you even could).

Decisions are made by people who have time, not by people who have
talent.
Talented people are too busy fixing problems created by people who make
decisions.


Idiots persist, don't they? yawn

I can't believe people are so weak they actually "give up!"
