Oh, splendidly well done, all. You've now gone on long enough for the first page of the OP's google results to eventually get replaced by a long flame fest as to whether he's an idiot or just ignorant. Most excellent solution to the problem. By the way, attempting to actually explain to people why these things aren't as simple as they might appear can be dangerous. Those of us who tried it a couple of months back on a BSD mailing list were turned over to the police for stalking by the OP, who insisted that we and "our associates" were in a conspiracy to not remove all mention of her from google that displeased her. I don't think she ever quite caught on that the more mail she sent to an archived, public list, the more hits that she didn't like would show up. --Jon Radel
