The person may not realize the full extent of their actions. It's not just being mischievous, a pain in the ass, or a breach of terms of service. It's illegal. That person has to ask if their differences with Karl is worth crossing that line and committing a criminal act. If the answer is yes, they have a real issue. For most people crossing that line into criminal behaviour would require a lot more than a simple annoyance. For most it would require protecting one's self or one's family. If this becomes a recurring problem then Fedora list may have to change the way it does business by masking the identity of the sender's email address (something as simple as creating a user account where the user would be assigned a numerical value that would be displayed with postings in order to track back abuse).
