In one newsgroup some idiot who posted as me@'something'
was making himslf a pain in the behind so I put 'me' in
the killfile, somehow forgetting that my name has 'me' in it!

So this thing was regecting everything which had 'me' in.

Silly me!


Rather like us, we were receiving nuisance calls and thought of switching
the ringer off. The trouble was we would receive no calls. BT have now told
us how to ban calls from certain numbers :-)) Works a treat :-))

We use the telephone and fax preference service but some companies,
namely the ones from abroad, who withhold their numbers, do not take any
notice of that.
