They have no influence over my opinions whatsoever. I don't work for Apache or Barracuda, or any company sponsored by either.Neither Apache nor Barracuda has complained. At the time I warned you, I didn't even remember that Barracuda ever donated to Apache. I don't think any member of the PMC has any regular contact with Barracuda, although we've had occasional contact about using their RBL.
Your warning is about using foul language, and then choosing to thumb your nose at the warning Justin gave you. You're behaving like an impudent and foul mouthed child, and that's unwelcome her. That said, I really don't appreciate you using this list to rant about Barracuda's products, or discuss them at all. This is the SpamAssassin list, not the Barracuda list. Barracuda may use SpamAssassin, and SpamAssassin may support the Barracuda public RBL, but beyond that, any discussion of them is, quite frankly, off-topic. I don't care how good or bad their commercial product, or its support is, because it is off-topic here. I don't welcome people praising Barracuda any more than I welcome complaints. It simply doesn't matter to SpamAssassin, so it doesn't belong here. You may as well be ranting about Ford cars for all I care, it still doesn't belongs here. This list is about SpamAssassin, nothing more, nothing less. Continue with the foul language, and you'll find the door very quickly. Keep harping on the same off-topic subject and we will eventually get tired of it. You've said your peace about Barracuda, now give it a rest, because frankly I don't care about their products, I care about our product. Is that difficult to understand? > > > >
