Either this flag isn't working or >the article that was just posted from inews is seen as a locally >posted article. I suspect the latter. Make sure that you add a Path: header to the incoming message, including some sitename such as 'mailtonews.twg.bc.ca' and exclude that site name from being sent outbound by an exclusion as below: mail/mailtonews.twg.bc.ca:\ twg.taylor-list/all:L:/usr/lib/sendmail taylor-uucp@gnu.ai.mit.edu Only non gated articles will match this. The you can use the L flag to work out if it should be sent based on number of hops as well.
