Ideally the person might manage to replace the subject-line with the word "help" and i'm even going to put it on a line of it's own to make it even easier for them to copy. help It is very easy to follow the instructions in the link given many times already but apparently it's more fun to just write swear words even though that actually takes longer and is more effort. If the person is too lazy to even try then they are going to have to just find some other way of dealing with this. Normally when someone puts so much effort into avoiding taking the suggested advice and refuses to read simple instructions then i just give up trying to help. They will have to find some other way. I don't even know how to hack into someone's email account or how to spoof it to send out messages as though they wrote it themselves but i have a feeling that even if any of us knew then doing so could well create more problems than it's worth. When people deliberately avoid following simple instructions you have to wonder what their real mission is. If they really wanted to stop messages from the lists then they would have already stopped them themselves. So, the question is what are they trying to goad us into? The person has already started emailing me off-list with the same message. It somewhat reminds me off an incident in Brighton years ago where a drunken chap was following a girl home at around 2am and shouting at her constantly demandign that she go away but using much the same language as the chap in this thread. She was going away but he insisted on following her. She looked pretty upset as she passed me and i was able to stop him from passing me and i was able to dissuade him from continuing to chase her. However, this time i feel pretty powerless to stop the person being so rude to everyone. I don't understand why people assume that an English speaker is american but that is a side issue Regards from Tom :) <div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13.3333px; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;"> <blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; margin-top: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> <div style="font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"> <div style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <div dir="ltr"> <hr size="1"> From: C B <> To: Elliot Still <> Cc: "ubuntu-doc@lists.ubuntu.com" <ubuntu-doc@lists.ubuntu.com>; amberstone <amberstone@hot.pl> Sent: Sunday, 20 January 2013, 13:20 Subject: Re: Clowns -.-' </div> I wholeheartedly agree... I'm awaiting some important emails, but this is kind-of filling up my mailbox... but a question rises here too, how can someone not know english, except for cusswords? the polish people I met here (in the netherlands) all speak enough english to at least talk about the breakfast they had... anyways, in the worst case, could we do an impersonation? make an e-mail with the subject "help" and then change the sender to the email-adress of our loyal friend...? // end of the small talk I am currently not able to access the internet, so I can't start a conversation in polish with help of google translate. but if it's all the same to you guys, I could give my German a try, or maybe even Dutch... What you say? or has someone tried already? Greetings, Cornelis On Sun, 2013-01-20 at 12:11 +0000, Elliot Still wrote: > Guys, I am personally sick of this.
