Whoever started the thread didn't even provide his or her name or even a unique nickname. "linuxmaillists" is apparently an address created for specific mailing lists. Besides, the original post contained blames and no specific details about the problem.

When I see such posts I usually press "Delete" immediately. Such posts are not even worth the space on my hard drive. And they can ruin a whole day if taken seriously.

As the free software attracts more users, we are going to see more antisocial types in the mailing lists. It's important to learn how to deal with them without spending too much effort. They want attention. Don't give them what they want, it will only incite them further.

There are always better posts waiting for answers.
