Kevin,

According to my friend who is a conflict resolution mediator, it is usually a really bad idea to preach at someone that is mad about how it is a bad idea for them to be mad. In other words, such preaching rarely makes them feel better (as opposed to letting the person "vent", etc.).

The suggested resolution method is to be supportive, and confirm the sense of injustice and outrage that the angry/ disturbed person is experiencing, then assuming that they are appropriate, and will be well received, suggest more effective coping/problem solving methodologies.

just an idea.

(obviously, my personal weapon of choice is ridicule.)

Anyway, as you can see from Steve's excellent post, Charlie had more than sufficient basis for feeling offended that someone was unethical (as well as having violated the "community" of this list) by spam-harvesting addresses from it.

regards.
