This user has posted in the wrong group on, at least, 3 occasions but in an email exchange, he seems to think that because he is hitting the wrong keys, that it's a technical issue and rather than accept that he is responsible for posting in the correct groups, doesn't take responsiblity for it.

That said he has requested that I delete his account and have done so. While I hate to lose any user, he's the only person who has done this so many times in the 6-7 years my BBS has been running, so he's about to become someone elses problem.

Regards,

It does, a feature hardly anyone (maybe no one?) actually uses.

I'm not going to become the post police for my users. They're responsible for the content they post. If issues crop up then I will deal with the user.

Validating messages would have made you a publisher and liable for
content that you validate, as well. That was the legal stance online
services took in the 1980s - they couldn't possibly be liable for
content on their systems. Although I suppose section 230 of the CDA
applies to BBSes now.
