Re: Digital Bill of Rights for Kooks

Yo BOB, 

How do I configure my router for that?

foo# conf t
foo(config)#ip digital-bill
                ^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

Or is it this I'm looking for:

foo(config)#ip filter-KOOKMAIL
foo(config)#

I recommend the procmail "KOOK" autoresponder for circumstances such as
these.

Bob's posts have no relevance to this group and are against this charter.
He is YAK (Yet Another Kook) that needs a hobby.  The Cabal will find him,
but until then, might someone from merit please tell him to go away if
he's not going to abide by the charter.  You may ignore his cries of
censorhip.

Of course KOOKs oftentimes think rules don't apply to them, but that's
another story, and not fodder for NANOG.

Please someone, post something technical before I cry.

Thanks,

Charles
