A big problem, other than Mr. Support's shenanigans with his email
address, is that even those of us who seem to have successfully
*plonked* him get the responses to him.  The biggest issue with a troll
isn't so much the annoying emails from him but the amplified slew of
responses.  That's the point of a troll after all.

The answer is to always make sure that you include the previous poster
in the reply as a Cc or To.  I filter out any email that has the string
"support@superhost.gr" in a header so I would also filter out the
replies if people would follow that simple rule.

I have suggested this before but the push back I get is that then
people would get two copies of the email, one to them and one to the
list.  My answer is simple.  Get a proper email system that filters out
duplicates.  Is there an email client out there that does not have this
facility?
