I am getting two copies of all messages to the Fedora list. This is
the only list so effected.
I did some simple looking at the Thunderbird mail client and I have
discovered how to do exactly what is being done to me. And it is dirt
simple and all you need is the email address of the victom and the email
address of the list. I have both for most people on this list. In theory
I can do the same for all of you.

Sure, it's easy. Sure YOU can do it. But I think you're missing the
issue here. Anyone with brains can pull this off, but /is anyone really
doing this/? I know you've been looking at the problem, but try looking
at the big picture. Is anyone really doing this? Or are you blowing
this completely out of proportion?
Unless I see honest proof (logs, etc would be very informative) that
this is truly the case, I think this thread needs to simply go away.
Please, feel free to do this to me if you wish. I can (and probably
SHOULD after this) filter every single email you post to this list. We
don't mind helping you, but there are rules in this list. Unwritten and
unspoken, sure, but they are still rules. A lot of people here are
becoming quite unhappy with the fact that you don't seem to be learning
those rules very well, or at all, depending on who you talk to.
This is a community, and not everyone gets along with everyone else.
People rub each other the wrong way. It's the nature of things. But
when protocol is followed, a good portion of that can be ameliorated.
Repeated threats like this isn't going to make you any friends and even
more, make it very unlikely that you'll get any help at all.
I truly doubt someone on this list has the time (or the immaturity) to
setup something like you describe. But maybe I'm wrong. Without
evidence of this, I'm not buying.
