Reindl is the definition of something I learned decades ago as an energy creature. DNFTEC is an acronym to live by.

Re: My apologies
Having myself been through what Thomas is appologizing for, I have some comments on what Reindl H. is doing. On 8/3/23 3:06 PM, Ken D'Ambrosio wrote: I ... think he should be blocked. He /is/ blocked from from sending messages to / through the mailing list. I've been online for over 40 years, and it's rare to have someone so actively hostile right out of the gate Here's the thing. He is sending his reply /around/ the list -- apparently -- so that it looks like his messages came from the list. So his behavior is -- in my opinion -- both hostile and deceptive. I admit, it made me worried what kind of environment was fostered on the Spamassassin list when I asked my newbie question, and was outright mocked by him. I think that reaction is perfectly understandable. I'm sorry that someone made you feel that way about the SpamAssassin users mailing list / community. I hope that you realize that he is in the minority and doesn't speak for the vast majority of us. And so, while I have zero sway as a team member or anything like that, as a newbie mailing list member, looking for help, I humbly submit that he's not someone you want being the first interaction a new list member has. Agreed. $.02, YMMV, etc. :-) Grant. . . .

Re: My apologies
I've blocked him on my mail server, as well. Reindl now and then says something useful, but as you have noticed his people skills are somewhere in the negative 200 score level. I don't know that I'd block him, but you do need to take anything he says witha few horselicks of salt.

We've all had to learn about him (sometimes on several lists) at some time or other. Thanks for the apology, but his attitude is his own, and you've done nothing to cause that. He responds to almost everybody in the same anti- social (to put it mildly) manner. Don't worry about it - just carry on with talking to reasonable people instead.
