Why don't you come off it.  You complain about cross-posting in a cross-posting
and then you set the follow-up to the group you don't want the articles in.
I read this group for forsale post.  I couldn't care less about a mac group.

Its obvious that the guy posting the rolex watch was following up an article 
in misc.forsale that was cross-posted to some mac group.  Sending a message
directly to him saying you goofed would have sufficed.  The original poster
goofed when he set the to and follow-up to fields.

Chill out and think before you post.
