But, as it is impossible to know which newsgroup the request was posted
from, so that the poster gets the required information, it is neccessary
to
post to all the newsgroups, a pity, but thats the way it is.

So you think there's a possibility that someone is actually
posting from alt.troll, asking for help ?

That's an interesting point, I had not read all the newsgroups in the
header.

Or from u.k.local yorkshire which everyone is being warned
about ?

I wonder then whether I could set up my machine to stop posts from either of
those newsgroups.

I must look into that.
