Yes, I realize this. However, it's Borland who are at fault. News servers are
after all supposed to be  global talking shops. I refuse to bow to Borlands
interepretation of what the world is supposed to be like. Just imagine if
every newsgroup was like those of Borlands. Newsnet would be dead within 6
months. It's time they changed their news server setup to bring it in line
with the rest of the world.

Neither do I normally, but they do have their use sometimes.
