Of course, some people are so childish that they will react against this just because they can (remind you of anyone?) but generally, the lesson will be learned as long as the letter was polite. JIK seems to have struck the right balance with his automated letters and also seems to be replying promptly, why not leave it to him (if he doesn't mind of course). Being too aggressive just leads to a puerile flamefest. -- Simon Langley (preferred) slangley@constant.demon.co.uk Hampstead, London pgp 2.0 public key available slangley@cix.compulink.co.uk
