"dispositive"???  I'm not sure there's any hope for you.  :)/2

   If, as you seem to be claiming now, your objective was merely to say that
the utexas gateway should bounce any email it didn't post, your method of
saying it (via a long list of "demands" and accusations) was poorly
considered and ineffective in achieving your objective.  Next time, try
asking politely instead of getting "ticked off" and making threats
publically.
