Hi,

I'm new to news administration, and I'm sorry if this is a FAQ:  Our junk
newsgroup gets posted nearly every day by someone trying to sell something
and posting to the group na.forsale, or some variant like na.watches.forsale.
Because our relay UUCP site sees the na, and we will accept stuff to the na
distribution, we get the article which is summarily junked.  Any way to cut
this off at the pass?  Thanks for any advice in advance.

-Dean
