- I forwarded the argic newspostings in news.admin.policy to postmaster
- at both anatolia and uunet stating that these articles were inappropriate
- for the news.admin.policy newsgroup. I received no response from uunet,
- but I did receive "this has been forwarded to /dev/null" from postmaster
- @anatolia along with the entire post appended to it. So the "mail
- bombings" are actually an "interactive" sport (since pomes did not
- mail bomb the site from what I understand).
-
- anatolia's postmaster also sent a message to my postmaster stating
- that I was mail bombing his site and to control me. I'll see if
- that post is still around (this all happened from another site that
- I have netaccess on).
