You are still sending me direct emails. What my name is is of no
importance. I could sign as Fernando Garcia and you'd still have no
clue/concept of who I am (even if I created my email address as such).
Would you feel better if I posted as 'Gary Lee'? Sorry, but it won't happen.
I could even post a web page showing family pictures etc & it would be
about as believable as some scam 419 bank sight.

Fix your gmail reply process; I've now adjusted my email filters to auto
delete msgs you send directly to me... I don't need the wasted bandwidth
& you can't seem to take the hint.

Also fix your rude posting of the respondants email address each time

Regarding manners; my post was to Frank Mehnert with valid and serious
questions (with the exception of the #3 comment of course) regarding the
virtualbox mailing list. I consider it *extremely rude* for you to pop
up with your comment regarding whether I use a pseudonym or real name
for posting. I certainly hope that such behavior is not an example of
how you plan to run your alternate virtualbox sourceforge mailing list.
If so you'll not see any attempt from me to sign up for it (via
gmane.org or otherwise).
