I have seriously considered that fact. The alternative to responding is that he gets free license to spam our group forever. And do you think for one minute he would stop?

So I/we back off labelling his garbage as spam and other spammers take away what lesson from this? That is you spam often enough we just throw in the towel and let them spam us to their heart's content.

If you believe ignoring him will make him go away I will gladly do so. But that is not my belief system so even though I ignore all of his childish provocations I still label his spam as spam ... each and every time.

The jury is out on this one. What do other regulars think? I will gladly try anything that is not illegal or immoral as I have no ego involved in dealing with an obviously mentally disturbed individual.
