Well, I've just created a filter that deletes any mail I get with his address in the sender position. I'm not sure chucking him out is called for. My Org Behaviour course has been talking about behaviour modification in the workplace. We've all been rewarding his behaviour by being a good audience and responding every time he opens his mouth. Extinction of the behaviour is what we want, isn't it? So whether you call it "giving the cold shoulder" or that lovely Brit expression "sending him to Coventry" I vote that we use the blocked sender or msg filter capability of our email program to simply not listen to him. If we're patient he will get the hint his approach and manner are completely unacceptable if he wishes to take part in this group's discussions. -- Brian Lunergan Nepean, Ontario Canada --- avast!
