I really wouldn't bother. If you really have that much time on your hands
Joeri you ought to give up now! People should learn to be more tolerant or
know when to ignore or when to shut up. You cannot have it both ways. You
cannot reply to the list moaning about OT posting, saying it shouldn't be
there. That makes your posting equally bad. We all should know by now the
best way is to simply ignore or not read it.
I'm not claiming to be perfect, but all too often people want to rant about
others too much, which in turn means they themselves are using the list to
make their point, which is no different.

Also, if you transfer OT headed postings to the OT list, people will just
stop using OT in the subject, and then where will you be?

There are too many hypocrites out there!
