Python-list (and gmane) readers do not see and hence never notice the spam that gets blocked -- about 90%. Since essentially identical messages have appeared before, probably from the same sender, I tweaked the settings a bit.

The few spam messages that do make it to the list should almost always be ignored and not kept alive by responses.

One would have to be ignorant and/or foolish to think that spammers read responses on any of the many lists they spam. So any response is directed at the non-spammer readers. Obnoxious responses like that above constitute trolling.

No matter what you think of the inappropriate post about manuals, this
kind of response is completely unacceptable.  Please don't do it again.

Please do, and follow it.
