> Well, I really don't think it should be so hard for the server. The reason being is that the server is now able to FIND posts designated for a specific person, right?
As James said, the server could stop you if you clicked "add name of previous poster", but if you didn't, how would it know?
> As far as being on "an honor system" to respect the request, I thought that is the problem we are now having; that people aren't respecting those requests.
I'm not sure we've really tried out the new system yet. If someone doesn't respect a request, and the person who made the request tells me:
http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/admin/20030404/msgs/216665.html
then I can block (or warn) them the old way.

That's one thing that's different about this policy, it wouldn't be me deciding what constitutes harassment, it would be you...
