What happens when Mr. Petrie comes in Monday morning to check his latest posts on the mailing list and sees he has been banned? What happens when someone else on the list stays home one day and forgets to manually unsubscribe to the mailing list for that day?
I don't think they banned him...just removed him from the list. He can resubscribe Monday morning more than likely.

Is it really the end users fault for not remembering to visit the website and click the link to unsubscribe for the day... or is it the mailing list's administrator's fault for allowing this type of spam to work it's way through to everyone of our mailboxes?
Yes, it is really the end user's fault. It's not our job to take care of his mailing list subscriptions, nor should it be the responsibility of the redhat list admins. Personal accountability. The only other place the blame should be pointed is the admins at his company for poorly configuring the auto responders.
