I think we may have a problem here, folks. The other day, I saw a message
in net.general with the wonderful 'Re:' in it. Being the nice, evenheaded
person I am, I wrote a nice, evenheaded message (really, it
was!) to the sender reminding him that followups to net.general belong in
net.followup, and he shouldn't override the software on that. He wrote a
nice letter back telling me to leave him alone and talk to the real
culprit, the notes software. Sure enough, I looked again, and his message
was a notes message (you can tell from all of those wonderful non-standard
header lines that look similar to line noise). Well, golly me, there are
two more of those wonders in net.general this morning.
What is going on here? I can understand notes not complying to the header
formats and making my life miserable with Orphaned responses and (-nf) and
no References: and things, but if it is going to start dumping replies back
into net.general, that software (and the net in general) have a real
problem here. I don't know offhand if this is a problem limited to a single
site or what, but it needs looking into.
