- Nope. That was another guy. :-( Who apologized as well. It seems he
- used NetScape for reading news and it messed up posting instead of
- e-mailing. This guy posted IBrowse UUEncoded. :-) Luckily, by now
- my provider also got irratted and installed a MaxSize option for
- it's UUCP clients. So every post exceeding a certain size (that
- I set) will not be batched for my UUCP site anymore. So I missed
- that Ibrowse post. :-)

- I fully agree with this. That person is the real culprit here. But
- most providers just cash the check and open the account. No course
- on how to behave on the net. :-(
