It makes sense to use an invalid or munged email address, yes, but if the emasil@ address wasn't valid you didn't need to change anything.
A little detective work leads me to believe that the replies you refer to are by one "StopThisAdvertising" (Arno R?; e.g., http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.access.tablesdbdesign/msg/f4fc55ce3e6028e9) who keeps posting a link to the very interesting page http://home.tiscali.nl/arracom/whoissteve.html
Other than continuing to change the name & email address you use when posting (which you've been doing, it would appear, in order to shake this guy), there's nothing you can do about it except ignore him (or clean up your act & stop soliciting business in the MS newsgroups...which happens to be a violation of the Code of Conduct).

Yes, one and the same! At the beginning of this thread it was suggested to
change my name and email address in my newsgroup account.
Are you accessing the microsoft.public.* newsgroups via the MS newssever
or the Earthlink newsserver (which is a mirror for Giganews)?
Earthlink

A standard reply to the newsgroup or a standard email reply? If the
former, what newsgroups?
If you access this and other MS newsgroups using the free MS newsserver
(msnews.microsoft.com), do you still receive these replies?

Someone is automatically posting a standard reply to every post I make
in
four newsgroups and I am trying to understand how he is doing it.
Go back to the beginning of this thread.

something else, how could I automatically post a standard reply to

You want to be a stalker? I am thinking that answering your questions
was
a
foolish thing, now.
