We know that this is a difficult setup and we tested it thoroughly
before using it, and it worked for a long time now. Unfortunately one of
our admins updated the news server today without thinking of the
implications :-(

We deeply regret this and apologize honestly, but also would like to
resubscribe...

Could you make it a one-way list this time?
These two-way lists always give horrible problems
and I would hate to killfile all of innominate ;)

At ftp://ftp.cistron.nl/pub/people/miquels/software/cistron-m2n-1.36.tar.gz
you'll find some gatewaying software that is unidirectional, yet
bidirectional ;)

It works by marking the groups as moderated. A posting to the group
will be sent by mail to the moderator, which is a script that
checks and rewrites the news message, and sends it to the list.

That way it's almost impossible for loops to get created.

Mike.

If vger postmasters do not mind, next week I'm going to unidirectinally
gate linux-kernel (and maybe other high traffic vger lists, any
suggestions?) to a group in the linux.* hierarchy[1].

	You are welcome to do that.

	It is just the BI-directional gatewaying we are opposing
	for well observed reasons...  (People are doing bidirectional
	gateways regardless of our opposition -- "we are good, we
	won't do it wrong", but when things irregardless do go wrong,
	we have to do some drastic measures to cut the loops.)

pre4 oopsed all over the place on my alpha with modules and autoloading
turned on as soon as it mounted / and freed unused memory.  I take it this
was seen on i386 as well?

Will try pre6.
