Yes, it is apparent that they were cancelled using the guideline
of net-abuse.  In this particular case, you not only did excessive
crossposting, but apparently posted into a moderated group to boot.

And, I find spam to be unethical, repulsive and a waste of time
and money.  Grow up, quit whining and read up some rules of
nettiquette.  Even more important, read the FAQ of any newsgroup
you intend to post to or be prepared for the backlash.

Followups set.
