what's also interesting (and might perhaps be relevant to this WG) is that 
the headers of the message, as delivered to this mailer, contained not a 
single trace indicating that the message had also been sent to the NNTP 
list - the "to:" field contained only the USEFOR list, and there was no 
"newsgroups" or similar field in the message.....
