Have you looked at the headers or bothered to contact the admin of the
gateway (apparently not)?  The examples you give are not from our remailer,
but are from the Frog remailer (we do not allow forged from: lines thru
our remailer) and our policy specifically forbids forging from: lines
thru our mail2news gateway.  Forged from: lines, when reported, will be
blocked thru our gateway.

Again, look at the headers.  These a posts from the Frog remailer
gatewayed by our mail2news gateway.  One simple e-mail to us would
suffice to have thge forged from: lines blocked, but thats not
going to solve the problem of that from: line being forged the Frog
remailer (and any other host we do not have control over).
