What can I say. I don't receive email from Dean, and there are a few - very few 
- others that I don't receive email from. But when people feed the troll by 
replying to the email, the abuse affects me. At minimum, I have to delete the 
well-meaning burst of chatter that follows.

Yes, I filter. None-the-less, I would appreciate it if courtesy prevailed. If 
it takes a court action to instill a modicum of courtesy, so be it.
