Another forged post

The last recognizable provider host name in the PATH header belongs
to altopia.net. If one of their customers is preloading the PATH and
also forging your e-mail, that customer appears to be in violation of
even Altopia's liberal policies. See their FAQ questions on forgeries
and PATH pre-loading:

https://www.altopia.com/polfaq.html

Then attempt to contact them and explain in what manner the post is
in violation of their use terms and politely request they cancel that
person's account if it is indeed one of theirs - be sure to include
all the headers of the offending post. Also be sure to ask if they
have a genuine peer that uses the node name
ACLU.cowards.run.from.the.NOTB and if so, ask them if they can
provide contact information.

Yet another chowder-head.

I own the e-mail address, fool, so I'm not
"forging" anyone.

Fair enough - I've sent you an e-mail to you at that address. Definitely
don't want to get caught in the crossfire of some emotionally charged
individuals.

But I'm pretty sure the way I phrased things doesn't accuse anyone of
forgery - it is offered advice, nothing more. I'd have offered the same
advice to you if you were on the receiving end of someone's obessive
attacks.

By the way, if your name is not Maxwell, then it may be that posting with
an e-mail similar, even if not identical, to another person's may be in
violation of the terms of service of live.com; specifically:

"Don't pretend to be someone you're not

* Do not attempt to impersonate any other person through any means."

I'm sure you believe that all you have to do to insure you aren't legally
guilty of forgery or impersonation is to create an account name identical
in all respects except the target's domain. Maybe that'll work, maybe
not. Courts are costly in time and money. Frankly I think it's a dubious
legal stand and I can't see any reward that merits the legal risk. It may
not pay to push the envelope on the tactic.

Just my humble opinion.
