"Glyn Millington".

Now I know who the troll is. "Sam" who hangs out on
and pollutes comp.mail.misc.

I haven't read any of his/her/its posts in years.

And the poor simpleton either thinks that I do,
or thinks that I care what he/she/it thinks or
posts.

I've been posting to him/her/it like this for
years, and he/she/it just takes whatever I
throw at him/her/it. Like a punching bag.

Those of you who are wondering why this cretin
showed up at this point should read my most
recent post on comp.mail.misc.

I have a Challenge-Response mail filter that
silently dumps anonymous mail. Been using it
for years.

So all the shit mail "Sam" sends me gets silently
dumped and I just posted a section of my logs,
which pissed poor little Sammy Wammy off.

Now, to spare the group more of this punk's
shit, I will killfile this thread by subject
and message-id.

I've said what I had to say.

I'll never read another word you post, "Sam".

Really. Not to save your life.

How many times have you posted unread articles
to me? 3000? That sounds about right.

You sure are a fucking slow learner.

Now go away. I grow weary of the sensation of
your lips upon my buttocks.

Come Alan, you can do better than this. It really is _easy_ to track me
down. Google will do it; whois will do it. All this "Sam" stuff is just
the old paranoia kicking in again. Have you dropped your medication?

> I haven't read any of his/her/its posts in years.


Yes, you have and you have replied to them! Are the tablets affecting
your memory?

> I'll never read another word you post, "Sam".


That's a pity, because I'm possibly the only person on the whole of
Usenet who has you scored UP Alan - wouldn't miss one of your posts for
worlds. Ah well, I suppose one has to learn to face rejection
philosophically.......

Love and hugs

In alt.os.linux.slackware, Glyn Millington dared to utter,

You're not. Unlike some of the other trolls that hang out around here,
Alan Conner is _insanely_funny_! The guy makes me laugh everytime I
read one of his posts, particularly the ones about his stupid
Challenge-Response e-mail crap. Those are the best.

For those of you wondering what C/R is about, it's a system wherein you
only allow whitelisted e-mail addresses to contact you. Anytime some
one e-mails you, your MUA sends them an email (the challenge) which
they have to answer (the response) and if so, your MUA will display
their original e-mail. This sounds all fine and good at first, but
it's horribly horribly busted for reasons laid out here:

http://kmself.home.netcom.com/Rants/...-response.html

But the biggest reason why mass adoption of C/R hasn't taken place, is
because two people using C/R can't communicate with each other! Their
MUA's will automatically block all challenges and respond with another
challenge, resulting in no one ever seeing anyone's e-mail!

It jusn't hasn't been the same since he went off sulking and tried Debian
instead has it? Nice that he looks in every once in a while ....

Glad there are two of us in the Connor Appreciation Club :-)
