And if you insist to uncover the wrong doings of others, why not disclose more information about the list? Either your list is advertised, then you can't blame him for not knowing it's private, or he was told to write to it.
Look, I know full well how to hit delete. Not only that but I'm even intelligent enough to set up filters and blocks to keep from getting mail I don't want. {{ohmigod!!}} The *entire* point of this ridiculous exercise is to inform *him* that it is *not okay* to spam people simply because you need to get a survey done. I *ignored* his spam. When he posted here as well, I felt it necessary to point out to him that his actions were wrong. If you can't figure that out, then I can't help you. Again, if you had actually *read* what I posted, you *should* have picked up on the fact that he spammed *individually* an entire list of people who are all on a private list. He obviously harvested that list somehow. He *did not* spam the list. He doesn't have rights to post, because the list is *private*. (I cannot believe I'm actually having to explain this on *this* list!!) BTW, "sophisticated people" don't just hit delete, because they understand the impact that spam has on the Internet. And what happened to your "replies to /dev/null" anyway? That's where any from you or the list on this topic will go now. I'm done trying to explain stuff that members of this list should understand already. Sheesh!!
