- Well, at least this time the forger spelled "cmcl2" correctly.
-
- I assume this post is coming from one of the same sites it must have
- come from last time. There are other errors in the headers that rule
- out the posting actually coming from schonberg.cs.nyu.edu, but I'm not
- going to point them out or they'll be fixed the next time!
-
- As I said last time, it's possible to track these things down by
- checking log files at the intermediate sites, but there are so many
- forged posting in USEnet nowadays that I doubt anybody at those sites
- will want to spend the time. All you'd know anyway is where it came
- from, not who did it.
-
- People should treat posts such as these the same way they treat
- posts through the anonymous remailers.
