Mail From: chucko (Chuck Fry)

Because of his repeated violations of "netiquette", (email redacted)
has been removed from the Fordnatics list, and any attempts to post to
Fordnatics from that address will be filtered out.

The most recent incident -- in which he posted information about AOL
users without their knowledge or consent -- demonstrates that
Mr. "Steele" (an assumed name, btw) lacks judgment about the proper use
of information on the Net. This leads me to doubt his ability to honor
the charter prohibitions against redistributing Fordnatics messages. I
will not knowingly allow this rule to be violated, as it would open the
door to harassment of contributors (among other things).

This incident is not Mr. "Steele's" only lapse of judgment. His other
Fordnatics postings, and some private mail, demonstrate a dangerous
naivete' about the Internet and its culture.

If you have any comments on this action, please discuss them privately
with me. Please do NOT discuss this matter any further on the
Fordnatics list, as it is way off topic.
