It's easy to put a filter in to block emails from a particular email address. That's probably the safest thing to do, short of changing your own email addy. At least you can protect yourself from receiving future emails that way.

This is all just such a shame. Such a sore lesson for us all to learn.

Phillipa, don't be ridiculous. It's obvious from your first post that you somehow know who Ozland is, and exactly when she was somewhere.

How can you not be honest about this?

You have done incalculable damage by talking to your T about someone here, by name, and identifying information.

And how can you post that information, on top of it all?

I'm terribly upset about this.

Honore

> Phillipa, ... When I first joined babble you sent me a collection of photographs of some of the people here.

I wish to god I thought you were kidding, Quintal. But my experience suggests you are not.

I believe that a good rule of thumb when sending an email to more than one person: Blind copy is your friend.

BCC.
BCC.
BCC.

And another rule of thumb that others have brought up that might be useful for respecting others in life in general and here at Babble: do not share information that is not "yours" to share. That is, if it's private, personal, identifying in any way information about another, zip it. It's up to that other person to share it with whomever THEY choose to.

In my case, I feel upset when I'm the recipient of private information without the individual's permission. I'd feel upset as well if I knew that someone disclosed mine. So I think there's more potential harm than just to the person who's info was disclosed. Then there's also the worry that others could have about our their privacy when someone else's is breached, as some of you have talked about already.

Bah. I'm angry.

This is unbelievable let him or her send e-mails to Bob. Solve the problem. I have no idea who you, her, Quinal, etc is do you know who I am? I could be an alien from outer space. You don't know on the internet what is true or false and it's a fact. Google a subject you may find yourself on the internet pick a subject. When I did melaleuca I was on the mealeuca google. Same thing has happened to a lot of posters. Phillipa crazy, looney, wacky, unsane, unstable, psychotic, certifiablely insane institutionalized for l00 years on the planet called zero.

I wish "The Angry Heart: Overcoming Borderline and Addictive Disorders" was available in electronic format so I could cut & paste. There's a few pertinent quotes that I think would be therapeutic here. As it is I'm to weary to type them all out.

Please use the Notify the Administrators function rather than post requests on the board, since posting it on the board may lead others to feel accused or put down.

> Nighty night have fun. Phillipa the dragon queen as I can say whatever I want about myself. And I have no personal info about any of you. Shame for you not already knowing that.
Phillipa

Please don't be sarcastic or post anything that could lead others to feel accused or put down.

Honore

Please don't post anything that could lead others to feel accused or put down.

If you or others have questions about this or about posting policies in general, or are interested in alternative ways of expressing yourself, please see the FAQ:

Follow-ups regarding these issues, as well as replies to the above posts, should of course themselves be civil.

Please don't post information that you know to be false. Or disclose without permission information that identifies or communications from another poster.

But please don't take this personally, either, this doesn't mean I don't like you or think you're a bad person.

If you or others have questions about this or about posting policies in general, please first see the FAQ:

> I suppose there's nothing one can do about malicious emails?

It can be hard to stop someone from sending malicious emails, but:

> If you receive an abusive email or babblemail from someone here, please forward it directly to me (with all its headers, if you know how to do that). FWIW, I can then block any Psycho-Babble or associated Yahoo Group registrations using that email address.

http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/faq.html#privacy

Also, you can complain directly to the sender's email provider. Often, the email address of their complaint department will be "abuse" @ the domain of their email address.

For stepping in and clarifying what constitutes civil behavior.

I have been on the receiving end of distressing babblemails in the past and it took a long time to get things sorted out. Are they sorted out? I dunno. Haven't had any problems in about 2 months.

One lesson I've learned is never to say anything about another poster in a babblemail. Something along the lines of "you can't believe ____ she has borderline personality and is not to be trusted".

That kind of statement can be very harmful to the trusting relationship that is so vital to the support mission of babble.

Another thing I've learned is -- when in doubt say nothing. Things have an odd way of sorting themselves out. Those with less-than-honorable intentions create a series of consequences that will leave them exposed in the end. Consequences.

Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.

-Ll

p.s. I don't think that anyone involved in this discussion is too mentally unstable to understand the implications of revealing personal information about another poster on the boards or in private communiques. In fact, for a group of people who have (often severe) mental illness, I find a great deal of integrity, common sense and compassion.
