A while later they see the incorrect answeres and reply to them.l Meanwhile original poster has already acted on incorrect information. This could just as easily happen the other way around too ... someone posts, moderator lets it through, seperate ppl on the lists themselves post incorrect answer but someone that I haven't approved yet posts the right one ... |
faster than that.

You approve an email. It goes to a server not currently carrying the groups and gets marked as received but not valid group. Email never makes it to a server after the site refusing it. Some sites have it some sites don't. Each with different message ID's most likely. then the site after it wouldn't have received any of teh original messages either . |
group. That's why those gated don't make it to databasix.com for days
after they're actually posted. So each appears twice. Once as the
original USENet post and once as a post forwarded by you.
If all the groups were set to moderated and sent on to you instead of being
immediately posted, that part of the probem would go away.

'moderator address' would be the list itself (ie.
pgsql-general (AT) postgresql (DOT) org) ... of course, that still doesn't fix the
case where someone on the lists themselves will go through fast, while
someone not subscribe will get held up ... so, from my perspective, there
are no changes *shrug*

Marc, please stop removing news.groups from your replies. He's posting to the mailing list; he probably can't avoid dropping the crosspost. |

(BTW, since the person responsible for setting up the rogue groups appears to be aware of the discussion to legitimize the groups, why isn't he taking part in it?) That's my whole point.. He's responded in the mailing list to an issue being raised here. That does him about as much good as wiping his rear with 20 grit sandpaper. |

usual headers. It does sometimes appear in a seperate header
"Newsgroups". Besides, my mailer doesn't post to newsgroups so I'd have
to setup a newsreader just for that. I'd be surprised if I were the
only one...
