I'd suggest setting the "N" restriction on their user account, so they
can't post to Networked message bases (like DoveNet, FidoNet, etc) for the
moment. Then, send them a personal/private message on your board and
explain a little about better message writing, and add that their echomail
posting priviledges will be restored in a short while. Monitor their
activity for a bit to ensure the advice was followed. That should do it.
