Here's another abuse of expiration dates.  Perhaps what we need is a
"stop list" of user and/or site names, such that expire will ignore
expiration dates on articles originating from such users/sites.

Meanwhile, I hope sas1@sphinx.UUCP will send out a cancellation message.

   I am is the same situation, so if you need votes for posting I'll vote yes.

   PS: The problem will be now to post the binary for VMS.  VMS is picky about
   file structure.
