Why should I post to mod.sources when I'm certain a lot of >the net will never get my program? I suggest that you fix your software, or get your feed to resume sending moderated groups through. I suspect that you are in a very small minority. Perhaps you should complain to your site administrator. How many persons reading this cannot recieve mod.sources? The second question is "why not?" Even very old software can handle mod groups (it doesn't deal with them "properly", but you should be able to recieve them!), all it takes is that your site, and the site that feeds you set your configuration properly (i.e. pass along mod.all)!
