Dogan: Nicky's suggestion isn't as "imaginative" as you seem to suggest: not opening messages from a sender whose messages you do not care to read or marking someone's mesasages as "SPAM" so that they do not fill your "inbox" are legitimate and normal ways which Internet subscribers use to filter their incoming mail. Both of these methods have long been practised by some subscribers to this list. This is not a solution for myself, though, as I -- wearing my administrative hat -- have to follow the discussions and intevene as moderator where necessary. I normally use this address when so doing so as to avoid confusion. As for your wish to see the conflict solved, the answer is very simple: DON'T FLAME! This is not the optimal answer, however: public apologies to the person who has been flamed and to the list would be a much better and just solution. In solidarity, Jerry
