That will also stop people legimitately posting to the groups and legimate 
inbound ihave feeds from feeding. Alas not a viable solution for us.

Feeder software, such as Diablo cannot stop crossposts, which can make the 
above suggestion somewhat futile.

INN supports ihave feed restrictions as I've described, so could this be 
implemented into DNews? Is it possible? What about a setting in dnews.conf to 
turn the feature on/off?
