As I noted when I took the action, the discussion of your Outlook question was suppressed on this list (but obviously not on other lists where that topic would be more appropriate discussed) as it was deemed off-topic.
Yes.
As list administrator, I am charged by the OpenLDAP Project with making that determination as well as taking appropriate steps to keep this list on-topic.
There is sadly contention over the appropriateness in this case.
I note that I have suppressed the meta-discussion regarding whether my actions were appropriate in this case, or whether the general list management practices or list charter should be changed. Posts in this area are welcomed.
However, I do remind you and others that proper Netiquette is to maintained. It is expected that everyone will avoid use of inflammatory language.
