and then he said
"Rob, I sent you NetMail about having cancelled the alt-bbs-synchronet
echo, After the fact I tracked down the problem system and have sent
him a message to either correct his dupe problem or I would unlink him
from all echomail feed from my system... He answered back and unlinked
the alt-bbs-synchronet echo from his system.
I may re-establish a link in the Newsgate program to alt.bbs.synchronet
IFF I am convinced that there are no more dupes coming in that are
getting past the Squish dupe detection that are headed for the Newsgate
progam... That is unless you have any objection.
"
"It is painfully evident that there is a fault somewhere in my system as it
has been posting duplictes of my original message. Once again I will
unlink the system from alt.bbs.synchronet. Fortunately, the ALT-BBS-
SYNCHRONET Fidonet echo was NOT lnked to anyone other than my system.
Apologies for the 4 duplicate posts. "

i would just filter him out. he's not fixing it.
he knows it's happening .
I think a good way is to filter every msg that has the fidonet news gate sig on
the bottom.
I'm going to do that now
