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. _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
