forum@pcmech.com has gotten WAY too many e-mails regarding this thread. All of them are replies to e-mails initially sent via this forum, and not via standard SMTP.

To those of you replying to messages regarding this thread, please make sure the e-mail provided in the body of the letter is in the "To:" portion of the reply, as the body directly says.

From now on, failure to do this will result in a public posting of the e-mail received, as most of us grew up with this type of thing in school (if you get caught passing notes, it's read allowed in class). Hopefully this is an incentive for everyone to remember to put the correct e-mail address in the "reply to" portion.

I am doing this because I have seen a few things that the forum e-mail system should NOT be used for...defamation of character is one. As a side note, I DO NOT log these e-mails...it showed up in my mailbox because someone forgot to change the "To:" portion of an e-mail coming from this forum.

To those misusing the system, this is an anonymous warning (but all Mods and Admin's know who you are). Continued use will result in further action.

On a personal note, the misuse of a free system like this not only disrespects the ones you write about, but the ones that work hard to keep it up and going.
