Ulrich, please vent your frustration elsewhere. This is not OK.

You maybe have noticed people have been very helpful to you on this
mailing list, and answered many of your questions in a lot of detail
for free. Yet, you still jump in all the time and complain all the
time. If you want people to help you, best thing is to be nice. If you
are not people will just start to ignore you and eventually block
you.

Messages like the one above are entirely unnecessary. Just don't do
this. You are not helping anyone, just annoying the very people you
yourself expect help from.

One more time and I'll put you on moderation on this mailing list.

Thank you for understanding,

Lennart
