True, but moderators can remove some posts from the mailing list side of
the list.  But there's definitely no ban on Wildman on the mailing list
because I saw his post there.

Yes, I make posts to comp.lang.python.  My newsreader's log says the
posts are accepted by the server.  I will contact Giganews to see if
they can shed some light on the subject.

Have I Been Banned?

2018-11-20 Thread Wildman via Python-list
In the past I have participated in the group without any
problems.  I access the forum through the usenet mirror
and I am still using the same newsreader and account.
Recently I made some followup posts to the group and they
never showed up.  Have I been banned?  If so, I would
appreciate it to know why?

Of course I am not sure if this post will make it to the
server.

If you mean you made posts to the comp.lang.python group and they did
not show up on your news server then the problem is either at your
end or with your news server - unlike the mailing list, the group is
unmoderated and therefore nobody can be banned from it.
