That said, _this_ list owner ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) should be notified and asked to block any further messages from the abuser. It is the responsibilty of the _list owner_ to take preventive action so that the emails cease making it to the list, and thereby propagating to gmane, nabble etc. > > So, guess it's up to the group for the most part.
