Not necessary in regards to this list, as I'm moments away from doing
that for you.

Such an announcement was made months ago, to the list. I agree that is a
reasonable use of the list. That announcement was not a direct message
to a filter-exempted list-specific address. It also wasn't composed in
broken MS-specific almost-HTML, so it was short and easily skimmed past.

I don't believe it was silly, but I certainly made a mistake in that I
had not anticipated how Timo views this mailing list.
If you wish to engage in a public debate over the precise definition of
"spam" then I must decline. I burnt out on that sport some years ago
after years of repetitive and largely fruitless effort.
