My intention was to point out a wrong use of the mailing list and not to
cause disrespect to the individual. We should not be too sensitive here. A
youngster can give as much valuable knowledge to an elder as the other way
round. Saying that there is a "Delete" button for unwanted emails is hardly
a valid call.

If I had known the age of the person sending the emails, I would have
phrased my email differently instead of being abruptly harsh. For that I do
apologize. I did think that the person to be a new journalist wanting to
make his presence felt.

I still hold the view that spams are a big waste of time and resource. I
cannot control what is being posted. I can only wish that they are more
centric towards the purpose of the list. Meaningful posts may even invite
discussion sometimes.
