Since his mail was in response to one of your misconfigured emails, it isn't libelous. Sorry. I suppose you could retain a lawyer if you're serious about making a libel claim. Say, is your broken threading an inadvertant misconfiguration, or did you break it on purpose? > And pray tell just who are you to warn anyone about anything? He's got as much right to speak here as you, I imagine, this being an open forum and all. However, since you brought it up, who are _you_? What's your experience? Where's your resume and references? Have you audited all this code you've written for race conditions, deadlocks, and the like? IOW, why should I download your software which you blithely claim solves all spam problems until the end of time? If I had no opinion regarding CR, I still would think twice about downloading yuour software. Your conversations here do not encourage me to believe that you would handle bug reports in a fashion pleasing to me. ("The software does not work in this situation." "Yes it does! You do not understand the software." "...") > Hot air doesn't bother ME at all.
