- Arno, do yourself and the Amiga Usenet community a favor and
- seek the help of a psychiatrist (Henning Schmiedehausen will
- certainly be able to recommend a few to you); you really do
- need the advice of a trained professional to stabilize you
- mentally. And although this will probably not solve your
- newsreader's problems regarding Fred Fish's fully
- RFC-compliant "Reply-To:" address, it may well eliminate
- totally unnecessary traffic generated by you merely trying
- to show off. Grow up! As reading news apparently doesn't
- keep you sufficiently busy, how about getting a _life_?
- (Feel free to make a fool of yourself - and thus prove my
- point - by responding in public.)
