[Rhodes22-list] Complaint to List Admin

John,

Thanks for the suggestion and it seems like a good idea, but I can't seem to
make it work.   The main problem is that on my machine list-serve emails are
from "rhodes22-list at rhodes22.org", not from Herb Parsons.  Can you suggest a
solution that will work with Outlook's rules manager?

BTW, yesterday I deleted over 8,000 emails in the Rhodes List folder and the
vast majority were from only three individual posters.  Can you guess who?

I can appreciate your perspective, but the solution is quite 
simple.  Set up a filter in your e-mail program that sends e-mail 
from <hparsons at parsonsys.com> to the junk folder.  This should be a 
very easy procedure and you may even derive some small pleasure from 
doing so.  This will end all further contact both on the list and back
channel.

If that doesn't suit your needs, then don't rise to the bait.  You 
stated "He has disrupted our list for too long and has caused too 
many arguments...".  My response is that an argument takes two to 
happen.  These problems usually disappear once the group doesn't play 
along any more.

Cheers!
