I am sorry to have to bother you with the following, and thanks for staying with me.
I would like it to be known as widely as possible that the racist spam mails widely distributed under my name have nothing to do with me. Some criminals have pirated my e-mail identity.
In this respect I would like to state the following:
A) I am not the author of the said mails.
B) I do not hold now and have never held racist or fascist views.
C) I have never consented to (or even been asked for) any third party use of my e-mail address.
D) I have this morning at our local police station launched formal legal procedures against the unknown perpetrator(s).
I do hope that this issue is considered important enough for me not to be expelled from the list, but I take this risk.
Regards,
Toni Theilmeier, Belm, Germany.
P.S.: In the case of a sudden disruption of an e-mail conversation with me, please assume that I have given up the medium and contact me in a more traditional way. I am in the trial phase of a last ditch system after some others could not stand my constant abusing them.
