If folks would end abusing NNTP for file distribution via flooding, the matter would quickly be resolved. Am i naive?
There is a reason Usenet hasn't gone the way of Gopher, and I assure you it isn't because of the the copious spam, net kooks, and trolls. There is a certain type of content that people want, and I'll give you one guess what that is... If you don't carry that content, you'll probably be doing more traffic in backscatter on the IP space then you will in NNTP. :) -- Richard A Steenbergen <ras@e-gerbil.net> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras GPG Key ID: 0xF8B12CBC (7535 7F59 8204 ED1F CC1C 53AF 4C41 5ECA F8B1 2CBC)
