Hi Rose.. the only way to stop these unwanted and offensive emails is to complain to his ISP, which is rogers.com. This man is vindictive...and anyone that threatens another through email is dangerous. You should send all the emails to abuse@xxxxxxxxxx Mention Marten's name and email address.

I have NOT sent any emails to his personal address since then. In my email to him in the group I asked him to not write to me and to delete my email address from his address book. I continue to get emails from him. The last had a picture that looked like a cliff overlooking the ocean...(or some other body of water) saying why don't I just jump over and make a better place for everyone else. It was frightening to me. I have never had someone wish such a thing about me... as least not to my knowledge... (except maybe my kids when they were grounded..haha) Seriously, it was scary to see those words on paper directed to me. This was not more than a week ago. I keep these emails for one reason. If he were ever to try to file a complaint against me, as he often threatens, I can show what he has sent to me and of course, there IS NO correspondence from me. My theory to not responding to him has been if there is no payoff to him..for the emails he is sending, he will quit. I am not sure that is true any longer. I think he needs to get 'hooked' into something else before this will stop. And I am not sure it will stop then. He has mailing lists with names on them and I think he will mail whatever he wants for as long as he can. I am staying silent for now, but, if this does not stop, I will go to his ISP and I will include the emails he sent saying the guy at his ISP thought what he was sending was harmless and funny. If he has a cable connection, and he gets banned, his only other choice may be to go to dial up. Then, sending attachments would be a real pain to him. That could make him stop..or at least slow down. The cost to him would be much greater than his payoff. But, I do not want to do that to him. I just want to be left alone.
