Nice attempt.

However, phishing emails are rife and well known these days, even with Australian banks, and I still think the post would have been more appropriate on -chat. I hope we can agree to disagree on that and move on. > This email is not unlike other community-based informative > emails on the SLUG list relating to attacks of various sorts > and how to cope with them. > There is extensive discussion on such and I would have > thought that my email was a fairly inoffensive addition to that Kbase. Fair enough, I was venting and shouldn't have directed it at you specifically, I do apologise for that. I don't like having to filter more and more O/T noise out of the signal, and my effort to address it in another way didn't hit the mark. Thanks for CCing back to the list, so I get to explain myself publically. I'll be more careful of where I send private correspondence in future.
