    This horrible anonymous "Sylvia Hagen" is sending me completely
    uncalled for and nasty emails Off-List. The email addresses she uses
    are plainly false or "doctored", because whenever I respond to her/him/
    it my emails are immediately bounced back to me undelivered. So -
    apart from being a complete pest - this person is also an unmitigated
    coward. I have written several times in the past to the List-Owner,
    Judy Janes, about anonymous posters both to the List and also off the
    List. Judy has shown ZILCH, i.e. NO interest whatsoever in grappling
    with this problem,. Admittedly it is not an easy one to tackle, but
    that doesn't mean it should simply be ignored. Ignoring problems NEVER
    makes them go away. Why should not the right of a person such as the
    anonymous "Sylvia Hagen" (who is, in all probability, the same person
    as the equally anonymous "Leslie Germaine") to post anything at all to
    the List be summarily revoked, due to her/his/its abuse of that
    right ? Now - before all you knee-jerk-reactors start screaming "TAKE
    IT OFF THE LIST.... Blah, Blah, Blah" ad nauseam, please be honest for
    a change and ask yourself just how well you would tolerate "Sylvia
    Hagen" writing to YOU regularly off-List with the sort of garbage that
    I am getting. (E.g. a recent email referring to my country as "your
    shithole island")
    Do you genuinely and honestly believe that this sort of conduct is
    acceptable".
