I still find it ironic that francie jones was banned for posting Bill's email to her but Bill posts others emails here.

Now here is my personal rant. We all learned way back when that anything electronically written can be seen by those who have the means to do so. Subsequently I learned not to electronically post info that couldn't be shared with the world at large. This was a lesson learned years ago.

That being said, my view is that electronic emails belong to the receiver of the email not the sender, unless identified in the text of the email which it is with financial and legal transactions. Personal "unsolicited" emails are fair game in my book and in some instances can be used in court against the sender. In fact, emails sent by employees in a business belong to the business where the owner(s) of the business can have access at any time to their employee's emails. Those emails do NOT belong to the sender. So how does it stand that francie jones gets banned given what has happened in this thread alone? If Bill can post a member's IP why can't francie post what he wrote to her regarding Cliff High?
