I went back and looked again. You're right. I think I clicked on the
scroll bar to page down some because the first section didn't seem
important, only the questions and answers below the dashed line.
I probably broke a rule of netiquette right there by not reading that
"Note".

Why not? It is not that difficult. Many people access the Internet because
they want an e-mail. Maybe Mr Koester got himself an e-mail only because of
this particular question.
I know spam is not agreable to get, but I agree with Gilles: we are
over-reacting. Mr Koester did apologize.
Povingly,
Philippe

What I don't get is why I didn't get one. It's not as though I haven't
posted to every group on this server, plus CGRR. Maybe I just come
across as unhelpful. :)

I would be more than happy to forward you my copy of it. I don't want
you feeling left out or anything :)

Hi Thorsten!
I would agree to Gilles and Marc Koester would not be the first person
getting a free account due to the help of friends or family. I did this
at least twice for friends.
Even so the error has been a big one I wouldn't take it too seriously
this time.
If he repeats this stunt I would ask for a UDP or whatever would be
possible on this server).

IMHO it means that M. Koester collected the adresses one by one, "manually",
copy/paste... (which would invalidate Chris' interpretation).

Maybe he deliberately excluded povray.org addresses. If that is the case,
he probably knew what he was doing was wrong.

Ok, accepted, but whys on earth did you mass-mail it, too?
I also thought about complaining to GMX and closing your account.
