Recently, a number of people who are not novices to the net and
who therefore should know better have submitted articles which
they really didn't want to submit. They felt they were stuck
because they had hit 'f' in readnews.

If you want to stop a followup, simply REMOVE THE FILE BEFORE
YOU QUIT THE EDITOR! The file name is easily ascertainable
(e.g., 'f' in ed). To remove it simply invoke the shell from
inside the editor ('!' in ed) and use rm.
