OT but newsgroup /Demon related

wrote I have Demon - is anyone else getting a lot of unsubscribed newsgroup emails coming from Turnpike_NNTP_Client? Turnpike will not send out posts to groups you are not subscribed to. Are these messages therefore only generated on your own machine when you n reply and the original post has been cross posted? For instance, if an article has been cross posted to uk.rec.gardening and japan.garden and you are only subscribed to uk.rec.gardening any reply to the thread may result in Turnpike telling you it cannot deliver to japan.garden. As 99.99% of people don't know how to cross post, except the spammers, blocking (killing) cross posted articles is a good way of cutting down the spam in newsgroup posts. In Turnpike: To kill crossposted article the rule is /^Newsgroups:.*,/h -- Alan news2009 {at} admac {dot} myzen {dot} co {dot} uk |
