It's funny to learn that if there was a way to prevent that mail from 
being send to the list, only a few seconds after it was send, I would not 
have been a troll.

I'll just assume that you would have prevented your name-calling as well, 
a few seconds after you hit the "Send" button.

No problem, I'll wait for the apology mail as well.
