NO! The best thing to do is FIX the software. First we find all the moderated groups listed in the Newsgroups: line, and mail separate copies of the article to each group. Moderators will see only one newsgroup - theirs - in the Newsgroups: line. Then we send what's left to the unmoderated groups, cross-posted as usual. The article ID's would be different for each mailing, which would ensure that the article made it to all the groups intended. ..Bob -- Bob Page, U of Lowell CS Dept. page@ulowell.{uucp,edu,csnet}
