Okay Mr. Completely missed the point, MyPCC is
used for getting classes etc. and the email component
is there period whether you use it or not.  You can't 
limit the email component to PCC, but I suppose
one could forward it to a black hole on a Linux 
system.

It would be a nice to keep anything from PCC out of 
/dev/null though.

It's probably over kill to set up a complete mail 
server so that I can filter what goes through MyPCC, 
but how else am I supposed to filter considering 
that the PCC filter's only allow explicitly listed 
domains to be blocked?  Unless there's some magic
domain name I can list that matches all domains
on the planet, trying to filter out a troll with 
any decent level of intelligence is pretty futile.
Let the troll win, he/she might crash
the whole entire portal so that you can't access
the registration the online payment systems 
anymore.

I've gone to the tech support on this, blanket blocking
is a feature MyPCC email just isn't capable of even
though it should blatantly obvious that such a feature
would be extremely useful.
