Nope.  Bet you didn't see my post of last evening (below) in mail from 
debian-user; only newsgroup readers saw it, AFAIK.  It has no 
subscribe/unsubscribe footer or other indicator headers that it every 
saw the debian-user mailer.  It only has the plain newsgroup headers.

Now if this only threads correctly so you can find it....

*Moderated?!*  What group would that be?  I only see linux.debian.user
on my isp's news server, and google shows a very inactive (1 2004 post):
> Group: muc . lists . debian . user(This group is moderated)

But I'll post this to linux.debian.user just to see.
