Please elaborate.  What would "proper handling" entail?  You're talking
about situations of crosspostings to a bit group and some other (non-moderated)
group?

Question:  If someone crossposts to bit.a and comp.b and the posting gets
sent as email to the moderator of bit.a with a "Newsgroups: bit.a,comp.b"
line, will Listserv preserve that line?  If so, then the article would hit
Netnews just once and get added to both groups at the same time.

I have a such a list.  It is available from LISTSERV at PSUVM with
GET NETNEWS MODERATO and GET NETNEWS DESCRIBE.  I could post a checkgroups
if that would help.  I don't see anything in the RFC on how moderators
should be listed in the checkgroups, though.
