Path: utzoo!utgpu!jarvis.csri.toronto.edu!mailrus!purdue!tut.cis.ohio-state.edu!ucbvax!decwrl!shelby!polya!weening From: weening@Gang-of-Four.Stanford.EDU (Joe Weening) Newsgroups: news.admin Subject: comp.binaries.ibm.pc moderated status Message-ID: Date: 6 May 89 23:13:09 GMT Sender: USENET News System Distribution: na Organization: Computer Science Department, Stanford University Lines: 17 We recently received a "newgroup comp.binaries.ibm.pc" control message that tried to change its status from moderated to unmoderated. I assumed this was spurious and ignored it; another novice news admin let one get loose, presumably. Then today a message posted to the group resulted in bounced mail; it had no "Approved" line and had the following "Path" line: Path: labrea!decwrl!ucbvax!agate!bionet!ames!purdue!mailrus!cornell!uw-beaver!teknowledge-vaxc!0rrodrig Does this mean that all of the above sites (except labrea, which was the one that tried to mail it to the moderator) now treat the group as unmoderated (since they passed on the unapproved message)? I'm somewhat surprised at this. -- Joe Weening Computer Science Dept. weening@Gang-of-Four.Stanford.EDU Stanford University
