Allan,

Apparently you didn't see, or didn't understand if you did read, my
earlier message to Ali. If you're not a moderator, you aren't in any
position to give orders about what should and should not be on the
list. You certainly aren't in a position to set spam rules. As an
associate moderator, I have to discuss policies with the rest of the
team, and Paul Borghese is the final authority. Believe me, if I am
off base here, I will hear about it from Paul or other moderators,
and I'm copying this post directly to them to be sure they see it.

Oh -- as far as language, I don't think anyone minds calling a piece
of hardware or software crap. Referring to list members or their
posts as crap is quite another matter. Inflammatory comments to or
about list members are not welcome.

I will again explain some options, which are within the technical
capability of a CCIE candidate:
    1. Put a thread filter into your mail/news reader to ignore this thread
    2. Don't read messages in the thread if you can't do that
    3. If it's all just too much spam and you want to keep complaining,
       why not unsubscribe from this one and start your own?

I do notice someone again changed the title of the thread. PLEASE --
if the topic of a thread changes, DO change the title. It can be
awfully confusing to know what a thread is about that started with
"Urgent!"

If the topic does NOT change, PLEASE DON'T change the title so people
that have filtered it out don't have to change their filters.

Howard
