The linux.newbie ng is a private mailing lists here at tcob1.net. I run a BBS
and the mailing list get sent to Fidonet and a couple of other similar
networks. I must strip that header and maybe a couple of others

Because the message I was responding to came via this unfamiliar-to-me 
newsgroup, rather than directly to the list, I replied to both the group 
and the poster's address. The reply to the poster bounced. Because I don't 
know how this newsgroup works, I don't know if he saw it. In stripping that 
header, you might want also to look at how the From: header is being 
handled ... I have no way of knowing why the bounce happened (that is, 
whether the bad From: address was caused by the newsgroup processing, or if 
the poster just used a bogus address).

He does, any posting to the list which arrives here goes to the
newsgroups, gated via hamster currently. It is then converted to FTN
technology (http://www.fidonet.ca) and sent to hundreds of BBS systems
around the world.
