  Organization: Demon Internet (news)

According to my postings.

This annoys me a lot.  I don't want to waste the bandwidth on an Organization
line and I certainly don't want to be advertising myself as being part of
Demon Internet (news) (whatever people reading think that might be).

Can we have posting via IHAVE as part of TCPIP please.

Maybe this could be done with a script, hmm..
