You're wrong there!
You are not allowed under your ISP's Terms and Conditions to "spoof" an
email address of a legitimate company,


Dumb****! If he HAS an AOL account, he can post it, even if he is
posting under another connection.

Spoofing is posting THROUGH another address which is not your own,
(THAT'S IP ADDRESS, RETARD BOY, NOT E-MAIL ADDRESS!) and has nothing
to do with an email addy, you retarded twit.

Hey, dick-splatter, I was not arguing with that, your statement was that
he could fake any email address he wishes, when under the terms of his
ISP TOS he signed up for, it will definately say he cannot.

The address he uses has to be registered to him, unless it is a
completely made up address with a domain that doesn't exist, eg





if that email account name is not
registered to you!


You're an idiot. In Usenet, anonymity is perfectly acceptable, and
legitimate as is outright lying on said "title" as the REAL poster
info is elsewhere, and cannot be changed, UNLESS spoofed, and THAT has
NOTHING to do with what is written in the "from:" field. The "from:"
field of a usenet post is absolutely meaningless.

No it isn't, I could change my email address to make it seem that posts
were being posted here from you, that you never made,.......that is not
allowed under your TOS, or indeed my TOS

ie I could pose as Darkmatter the pedophile, or Darkmatter the sheep
shagger, or Darkmatter the wife beater,..........
You want me to go on?

Anonymity is fine as long as the domain name and email address aren't
valid for someone else!


Go get yourself a clue, little boy.

Go pay for a shag old man!
