Thank-you so much for your sarcasm. It goes so far in helping to make things work better. All articles which are posted to the news-group are forwarded to the mailing list after MIME stripping (see the further discussion below). All messages which are posted to the mailing list, with a very small number of exceptions, are injected to the news group. > All that remains is: > > > [demime 1.01d removed an attachment of type multipart/signed] This occured because the OP insists on digitally signing his mailing list posts. In the past we have received numerous loud complaints which voiced strong objections to certain types of content crossing the gateway from mail to news. Vociferous complaints have been made about virtually every form of content which is not plain text. We have also received numerous complaints about undesireable content (e.g. MI5 complaints) propagating from news to mail. We have made an effort to ensure that _only_ the content and formatting which has been deemed acceptable by the participants in this news group is allowed to propagate from mail to news. Unfortunately in the _very_ few cases that something not been processed correctly we receive more complaints. So far no one, not even _you_, has come forward with any vaguely constructive suggestions. Nor has anyone displayed an interest in doing anything more than mashing their reply button. > Please reply in plain text, I have directly contact the OP each time that he sends a signed message and asked that he resend the message without the signature. To this date he has failed to do so. -- Steve Kostecke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> NTP Public Services Project - http://support.ntp.org/ _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ntp.org/mailman/listinfo/questions
