Miriam, while all you say is true, stalking someone off-list is going above
what is sane and rational. It is really no different than what Joe was doing to
me, harassing me off list both in personal e-mail as well in professional
e-mail. I agree that Roger would be happier if he left the whole situation
alone and not respond. The comments about whipping Roger are very similar to
when Joe threatened me with "want to rumble" and other implicit violence. You
can't reason with statements like that and it is a clue that turning on that
filter Roger is setting up may be the best way to proceed.

Yes, it's very sad. But he wouldn't have become so angry and abusive if Roger
had not felt it necessary to continue to shame him publicly by arguing with him
and showing him how illogical his religious beliefs are. Roger wanted to show
him up, and to demonstrate how illogical his thinking is. All that
accomplished was to make him angry and defensive and abusive. All of this
could have been avoided if he'd just been permitted to express himself. If you
remember, Joe, like Mustafa, had a short fuse.

Sadly, it seems that Mostafa has regressed. At the time I first read Mostafa's
posts, I thought that our old member Joe was being a bit...a lot unfair. But
it seems that Mostafa can't resist getting all puffed up whenever his self
proclaimed education is challenged. My opinion, after reading most of
Mostafa's posts, is that he fancies himself as one of Allah's chosen prophets.
It's an interesting speculation, for me, as to why a person can't be
comfortable with their own convictions and beliefs, and allow everyone else the
same understanding.
I'm certain that everyone on this list...with one exception...recognizes the
close similarity between our own Racist, Right Wing, Christian fanatics, and
the mouthing and posturings of Mostafa.

Hi Roger,
Found this with a quick search. Not sure if you tried this method, see
below.Bob How to Block/Unblock A Sender In Thunderbird August 11, 2016
by Jason Shuffield 7
Have you ever received an eMail from someone you do not want one from?
I know I do, and many of my clients do, too. It can be very
frustrating receiving messages from unwanted senders. The best way to
deal with this is to block that sender’s eMail address. Many people
use Mozilla Thunderbird as their primary eMail application. So I
figured, ‘Why not show you the steps on how to block a sender’s eMail
through Thunderbird?’. This will also delete the sender’s eMail
immediately (almost like call blocker on your phone). This is a very
helpful step-by-step guide that will keep the stress down when checking your
mail.
How to Block a Sender’s eMail in Thunderbird Step 1: Open your
Thunderbird eMail application. Most of us will have it on the Task
Bar. You are looking for this Logo– click on it
thunderbird-logo
Step 2: Find one of the eMails that you received from the sender. Open
the eMail and then right click on the sender’s eMail address at the
top of the eMail.
eMail Inbox
eMail address
Step 3: This will bring up a drop-down menu which you will want to
select “Create Filter From…”
eMail Drop Down Menu
Step 4: The next window that will appear is “Filter Rules” and the
address you selected will be auto-filled in the filter. If you want to
add more eMail addresses, just click the Plus Sign (+) next to the
first eMail. Make sure to name the filter “Block Sender” or something similar.
Filter Rules
Step 5: Here you will want to head down to the bottom box (Perform
these actions). Now you will want to Click the down-arrow next to
“Move Message to” wording.
Perform These Actions
Step 6: This will bring up a drop-down menu. You will want to choose
“Delete message.” Now click OK
Filter Rules Delete Message Option
Magic! If the sender tries to eMail you again, it will automatically
go to the desired folder. If you selected Delete Message, it will go
there rather than your Thunderbird Inbox. You can reverse this if you
forgive that sender at a later time. Unblocking is very easy to do
compared to setting up the Block.
Bonus:
Removing a sender from the block list (unblocking) Step 1: At the top
of your Thunderbird eMail application choose “Tools” From the
drop-down menu, select “Message Filters”
Message Filter option
Step 2: In the the Message Filters box, click once on the Filter name.
On this one you will click on “Block Sender,” (or whatever you titled
your filter). Now click Edit
Message Filters Edit
Step 3: The next step is to just Click the Negative Sign (-) next to
the blocked eMail you wish to unblock. Click OK once you are done. Now
this can only be done this way if you have more than one eMail set up
to be blocked in the filter. If you only have one, then you have to
delete the entire filter
Filter Rules Sender Removal
The way to do this is when you are on the “Message Filter” window,
select the filter you want to delete. Then, just click on the “Delete”
button to the right
Message Filter Delete Option
So there you have it! You can now block and unblock sender eMails.

I do use the Thunderbird filter option but I also login to gmail and
set a filter their also.
Jason Shuffield August 15, 2016 at 11:29 pm I like the way you think
Daniel. Always good to double up if you wish not to get those unwanted
sender emails. 🙂

Thanks for this article. I have the bad habit of wishing an
application had a certain function but not reading their help files to
see if they do. I’ve often wanted to block a specific sender, but
didn’t know Thunderbird could be set up to do that.
Jason Shuffield August 15, 2016 at 11:39 pm You are very welcome
Kelltic. Glad my article helped you out. 🙂

Way too many steps. Thinking of dumping TBird for not having a very
easy one or two step process for blocking one or many senders. If you
go through all these steps each and every time you want to block an
address, it becomes too time consuming.
Jason Shuffield September 28, 2017 at 12:10 am You are right Denny.
They need to have a shorter process of blocking and unblocking. Figure
that they would have a one button option by now but NO.
If you find a better email program with less steps please share.:)

Did you ever find another e-mail program. I really, really, really
hate the developers at Mozilla. They try and take something as easy as
“right click, block sender” and turn it into this crap. Please give me
a suggestion for a funtional e-mail client.
