Re: Printing problem solved
I really would not want to see debian-user on deja news ... deja-news is a
spam harvester's dream. If deja-news picks it up, I would want to see all
articles from the gateway have an X-No-Archive: yes header inserted so
that the articles are ignored by deja-news.
I sometimes post an article to the newsgroups that I WANT saved in the
deja-news archives so I remove the X-No-Archive header in my news posting
... I am then deluged with spam for about two weeks until I get all the
spammers into my exim filters and databases.
