Of course, this doesn't always work since you sometime get duplicated
<site name>.general postings.  Specifically I know that uw.general
exists at both University of Waterloo (Waterloo Ontario) and 
University of Washington (in Seattle WA), and that often messages
ended up in both.  (Those this might have been secondarily caused
by uw.general (Waterloo) being carried at Microsoft because of
all the Waterloo co-op students and grads.)

I have also seen this duplication in one or two other cases, but
I can't remember the names right now.
