However, it doesn't seem likely that we'll manage to get through to this person Way back when, in the Dark Ages of the Net (c. 1993) Usenet was not the barren wasteland it is today. Before the destructive Flame Wars, one could shield oneself from repeated harassment by means of a 'kill file.' Such a thing can be simulated today with most mail readers, even Microsoft products. I've set up my message rules in Outlook Express to direct such annoying drivel to my 'deleted' folder, and mark it as read. If it's really bothering you, make a message rule to delete messages with 'Auto Respond' in the subject line from Mr. Horzum: it's not as good as getting him to stop, but it keeps the spam down to manageable levels. --Devin Carless P.S.
