Re: [xml-dev] [Off topic] list problem

["G. Ken Holman" <gkholman@CraneSoftwrights.com>]

I started receiving these from PayPal in January.

I tried (very hard) to detail to them that one of their addresses is 
subscribed to a mail list and that they should be filtering those as 
not bona fide, or at least for human screening before responding with 
their "how can we help you?" automatic response.

I did not receive even an acknowledgement, in any of the times I 
responded to new occurrences of this triggered by my posts.

Very unprofessional and haughty of them.
