Not a thing because what is the penalty for sending spam? It must be some sort
of penalty that applies to companies, something financial, or maybe a threat to
lodge a complaint with the Better Business Bureau or some such thing.

Subject: [blind-democracy] Re: Mustafa
Something occurs to me. Again, I am not used to filtering my email. I never had
a good reason to do it before. But I think I saw the possibility of doing this
in the filter dialog. I think I can filter it to my spam folder and then filter
everything in the spam folder to the trash folder. I hesitate to do that
because not everything that lands in the spam folder is really spam. But it is
my understanding that messages deleted in the spam folder generates a spam
complaint against the sender. I do remember once that I got a notification
email from a web site that was not spam but that was mistakenly filtered into
the spam folder anyway. Then I was deleting spam and unthinkingly deleted that
notification message too. The next notification I got from that web site was a
plea to not delete their messages from my spam folder or they would have to
remove me from their mailing list. Somehow I can't see Mostafa threatening to
remove anyone from his mailing list, but I wonder what spam complaints against
him would do.

I don't think you have to be trained by a computer expert to just set up one
email address after another. As for myself, I finally figured out how to
block him in Thunderbird. Actually, I just set up a filter that
automatically sends all of his messages to the trash folder. Every time I
get a new one from him with another email address I just add that to the
list to go directly to trash. However, I am still a bit unfamiliar with
setting up filters, so I make mistakes. Yesterday I was doing that with
another one of his addresses and accidentally sent thirty-four unread emails
to trash. I was trying to send them back to my in box when they all
disappeared. I couldn't find them anywhere, so I supposed that I had
permanently deleted all of them. Today I started checking my email and found
all thirty-four in my Gmail in box. I must have accidentally sent them to
the wrong in box. I shouldn't have worried so much about them though. None
of them were of much importance. Anyway, this is exactly the kind of
behavior from Mostafa that makes him such a jerk. He does not just offer his
opinion. He forces his opinion on everyone. No amount of asking or pleading
with him will make him relent. He just makes every effort to force it down
everyone's throats. He is exactly like the preacher who followed me down the
street screaming at me about Jesus. Except that I have my doubts that he
would stop when I crossed the street like the screamer did. Honestly, this
is bullying and it is harassment.

I've been receiving messages from Mustafa ever since he was banned
from the list. Interestingly, it's impossible to block the messages
or rather, I do block them, but he uses different email addresses so
he's, apparently, unblockable. Not to worry, I just delete them, but
it's weird. He must have been trained by a computer expert!
