I had a message this morning about a new user derek sending a pm ? against T&Cs. I have emailed webeditor too but for your information have banned him due to pm spam/research and I suspect commercial interest too. He has not posted anything either.

He sent this ""From: derek

Hello,

I am conducting some research into air movement and would like to ask you a couple of non personal questions about the heating arrangeemtns that you have in your home.

Would that be ok?

best regards

Yep, looks like you did the right thing - and the fact that he used PMs to send the requests suggests he was aware that they were against the rules.
