Well, that's certainly something of an accomplishment. I've become somewhat suspicious that Google Groups is Google's deliberate attempt to kill off Usenet and non-Google-controlled mailing lists.

Again, not something you have much control over, except to stop > using Google Groups. I told my news client years ago to filter out anything posted from Google Groups -- and I know I'm not alone. If one wants the best chance of getting a question answered, using something other than Google Groups is indeed a good idea. -- Grant Edwards grant.b.edwards Yow!
