Subject: How do I auto bounce/forward?

Hi.  I'm getting annoying e-mail from someone,
and I'd like to set Pine to automatically send
any e-mail sent to me from that address right
back to that address.

How can I accomplish this?

A reply via e-mail would be preferred.  THANKS!!!

What is is.  Perceive it.  Integrate it honestly.  Act on it.  Idealize it.

I would like a PUBLIC reply to this, please!

Yes, indeed!  I would like a PUBLIC
reply to it as well, but I would
prefer an e-mail reply (both would
be ideal).  Thanks!

Pine does not filter; therefore, contact the person's ISP "postmaster":

		[email-masked]

and make a complaint. 

Worked for me when an AOL a/h threatened to kill me next time he saw me on my
bike. Scary.

Get procmail and the filtering FAQ. I know that you can use this to send
automatic replies, but I'm not certain how one would bounce the mail back
to the sender. I assume the reason is that you don't want to read it. 
However, consider using procmail to shuffle all such messages into a
folder (which you needn't read) and to send back an automatic reply to the
sender saying that all mail from that address is being automatically saved
but ignored AND one to postmater@jerk's.site saying that you have received
another email message from soandso even though you have asked that the
person not send any more mail.

No, this is usenet - we do things in public here so everyone can learn.
