We are very sorry for spamming this lits with a couple of polish
messages. It was caused by some misconfiguration, the original message
authors has nothing to do with the whole problem.
For those interested in technical details: we use small news server for
caching newsgroups and mailing lists read by people in our organization.
Among the others we mirror tru64-unix-managers (in a simple way - we
subscribed some artificial account to the list and feed to our news
server whatever come to it). Today we tried to configure 'the other
side' - we wanted to make our news server to forward every post which we
put to our newsgroup to the mailing list. For some reason INN started
forwarding every message which came to any newsgroup we mirror. The only
excuse we have is that we configured it exactly according to news2mail
manpage...
As soon as we got information about the problem we disabled the feature.
Once again: we are sorry very much.
Regards
