So what you post to gmane.linux.debian.user ends up on debian-user
mailing list too ?
(I can distinguish a typical server name from a typical group name, btw.)

I asked about gmane.linux.debian.user because it is mentioned in Rodolfo's
copy of the perceived mail headers, and because on a local USENET server
it looks like a fragmentary copy of group linux.debian.user

Rodolfo could make an attempt without the weighty attachment.
Maybe all the rest is just a red herring.

Is there a limit for attachments published for gmane.linux.debian.user ?

In the locally available gmane.linux.debian.user i see an article:

  Path: ...!news.gmane.org!.POSTED.blaine.gmane.org!not-for-mail
  From: Curt <curty@free.fr>
  Newsgroups: gmane.linux.debian.user
  Subject: Re: USB hard drives -- recommendations?

So that's indeed what a NNTP client and Gmane's news server write into
the message headers. But Curt's mails on debian-user appear without the
newsgroup specific headers (but with some Gmane specific headers).


Have a nice day :)
