I vaguely recall a rule on the mailing list, lightly enforced, that

There is no such rule today, nor has there ever been one that I can ever remember.

Hi Tom,

Then I must be thinking of a different mailing list.

Nevertheless, while I agree that the words should matter more than the
speaker, I think there's a degree of professionalism missing from
anonymized messages and that matters too.

Regards,
