I find that very curious because the post is mine but which I sent out with these headers: Path: reader2.panix.com!panix!qz!not-for-mail From: Eli the Bearded <*@eli.users.panix.com> Newsgroups: comp.lang.python Subject: Re: Getting a 401 from requests.get, but not when logging in via the browser.

X-Attribution: EtB XFrom: is a real address Encrypted: double rot-13 User-Agent: Vectrex rn 2.1 (beta) The timezone on the date header has changed, the subject has been truncated, the Path and injection info is all different, and most crucially, the MESSAGE-ID and REFERENCES are completely bogus. News servers rely on Message-ID to tell if a message is unique. Change it, and it is now a new message. Screwing up References: header while changing the Subject: is going to break news threading. The newsgroup is almost not worth the effort with all the breakage that happens here. Elijah ------ other breakage happens with References: headers due to mailing list stuff -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
