Hi Ben,
You're doing us a great favor keeping this forum happening, thanks.
Concerning our rampant poster, I think the whole thing comes down to forum
etiquette, I do hope he gets the hang of it.  He is a nice person, with some
intelligent questions, and postings. I hope this is the end of this
discussion.  Still working on getting the Outlook fixed to display subject
field, any ideas?

Peace,

Mary

Gary,

Please don't take offense at this, but...

The door's that way, mate. Or, if you really want to continue this, I can
show
you just how much "moderation" I'm willing to do.


The list is, for the most part, self-moderating. I step in, when and as
needed, to place members on "review", which means that I have to approve any
postings by them. I do not, normally, provide active moderation of the list.

Christian was, previously, on review. He created a new email address and
subscribed with it - see my note about this (to which you responded here).

As I said - this stops *NOW*.

No further discussion. If you're offended by what's happened, then you've
got
a couple of choices:

1) Act like an adult, realize that things went awry and it's all better now.
[In other words, grow a pair and sit down and shut up because it's been
handled.]

2) Decide that you don't want to hang around somewhere where it's possible
for
unmoderated content to leak through and terminate your subscription.

3) Keep whining about this, thereby encouraging me to either place you on
review or just boot you myself.

Those are the choices. Choose wisely.

Ben, putting on the *other* steel-toed boot of list ownership
