The NNTP is quite different to yours, so I wouldn't worry that anyone here
thinks this stuff is from you. I'm pretty sure many of us have more than an
inkling as to who it is, though. Ignore it - best way to frustrate a fool.

Thanks, I don't know enough about finding the source of articles to be able
to identify them.

The same thing is happening on another uk.local newsgroup. All the fingers
point to one person, but I have a feeling that it is someone else because
the postings contain 'little clues' in the manner of his script and
language. It has been going on now for about 4 years and at sometime or
other, he will let slip and I will pounce.

Don't worry Alan. We all know it isn't you. They all go back to school
next week. Rather an odd way to spend the last days of the school
holidays but it takes all sorts - it's a shame they don't have anything
more exciting to do.

No, it isn't, as it's possible to put any address in outlook express to
reply to newsgroup postings - hence by gibberish address, I could just as
easily have put Alan's though. BTW, I cut his out to prevent him getting
even more spam than he is going to get as a result of posting his address
;-(( !

It is blatently not you. The NewsProxy/nfilter filter is:

uk.rec.gardening DROP NNTP-Posting-Host: 195.252.61.139

For those who are interested.

Funnily I've not seen a couple of posts I did yesterday when they usually
appear within seconds, possibly been deleted somehow? Is it possible?
