Except that it's not a free email service; if you managed to read all the
way through his last kooky rant, you'll notice it's his plug for his own
ISP. Or at least, something going under that name.
Terry's a wacky wacky boy; I don't actually have an opinion as to his
presence on the list per se (though I suspect rants/plugs for his ISP will
get old fast), but he probably should be educated by the list manager that
belonging to the list is his choice, and therefore postings to the list are
not harrassing mail to him.
While the entertaining rant he sent to abuse at my ISP (and postmaster, and
webmaster, and root) was pretty amusing to me and I suspect gained a place
on the wackos section of Radix's abuse bulletin board right next to the
Dilbert cartoons, it might actually cause trouble for people with brain
dead providers.
