If they send it with a reasonable expectation that it's meant for one person, then it's a private communication. If I write an email or letter to the editorial page, I can reasonbly expect that it can be published. If I ran a website where some guy came in and violated several rules on a couple of occasions, and emailed him to say "look dammit, the rules are blisteringly obvious, knock it off", then I don't think that there is any expectation that it is for a wider audience. I also can't see any scenario where, if that were to happen, where the public posting of a message intended for one person, would help the situation in any way. But...I'm sure my mere reply is annoying our cowardly, anonymous troll. Dave Hinz
