Oh, yes: http://improve-usenet.org

Can we keep that sig reposting POS Lookout Express out as well?


Or the inability of posters to snip the content in their replies
regardless of which NNTP client they use?


(NOTE: Newsgroups truncated to just the first 4 from the original
list.)

And I thought that the only way was filtering them with Knode. I am using
Leafnode, and will certainly look into the fix mentioned at
improve-usenet.org.

I use Google Groups to search, but post only when I have to, e.g. for help
with a system crash.

It seemed to me that if I reply to the original message, or even the one I
am replying to now, my reply should go only to the "Reply To:" group, but
it never happens. It makes the "Reply To:" header pretty ineffective.
