I have a Debian mail archive dating back from April which I have
grepped for his email address, and have seen nothing from him. His
email identity might have been stolen, but he hasn't posted any polite
questions OR answers concerning Debian. Maybe you could give me some
Message-IDs?

This wasn't simple and polite, it was his way of trying to
unsubscribe.

Have you *read* all these posts? He (or whoever) was just saying
UNSUBSCRIBE a lot. It looks to me like he accidentally go subscribed
and couldn't deal with it.

He doesn't use the list. He got crazy because he couldn't unsubscribe
(call it email-rage -- he couldn't control his surroundings).

Right. That's why no messages should have been sent that were
damaging to his reputation.

I think you mean immature. Maybe he got unsubscribed before those
posts reached him. Maybe he will start flaming away tomorrow. There
are a lot of possibilities. He has not been acting like a Ph.D. or
been polite at all.
