Personal attacks are not okay and the policy on that is quite clear.  In
this case (as we would aim to do with all), we let a lot of them go by
before taking action.  Please recall that I posted a long list of them.

Jeroen isn't banned from the list.  He's moderated.  I've shut off access to
my company's server from his ISP because of attempted hacking, which Jeroen
pretty much admitted to.  Without access to my server, Jeroen can't post to
the list, but that's a result of his hacking, not his behavior on the list.
We'll shut off access to *anybody* who tries to break into my company's
network; that decision is irrelevant to the list.

It wasn't just 40 messages.  It was 40 duplicates.  And it was the third or
fourth time he'd sent them.  That was just the largest burst.  As I said,
I've been patient, not immediately responding to anything except when I
discovered Jeroen's IP address in our security logs.
