Just a question, did you ask this person to please stop emailing you first? Because, I'm not sure but Slau could maybe answer this, if you block him, won't that also elimiate this person's posts to the list from coming to your inbox as well?
I did that on another list, because I didn't want to see posts from an annoying person, period. So I blocked her, and any messages from her to the list were also blocked in my in box also. I would see other people's reply messages to this person though, with the original message attached. I've also asked people to please remove me from their mailing lists because I did not want to have to block them. It worked. To me blocking someone is an extreme measure I reserve for offensive posts or junk mail where there isn't another way to stop it. And for people who don't seem to have a high enough IQ to respect my wishes when I ask first. Just a question. janet ---------------------------------------- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: blocking sender > Date: Mon, 21 Jul 2008 08:34:11 -0400 > > right, that's what I meant.
