Frankly, it's not. It's called the Python mailing list because it's for discussing *Python*. Otherwise, it would be called "Python and random irrelevant topics" mailing list. There are plenty of web-hosting forums (forae?) where such topics would be appropriate. I'm sure there are plenty of folks here who read SciFi/Fantasy books, or cook, but it's not an appropriate forum on which to discuss literature or culinary arts. > >You dont like my questions, block me, but just stop answering > >unhelpfully. > > I'd like to -- but your username is full of characters my > (paid) news reader chokes on when defining a filter. I've found it helpful to just use "@superhost.gr" as a From/Sender filter, along with the couple gmail addresses I've caught for him. -tkc
