Immediately *after* I bin all those crossposting
scallywags I goes and swaps my computers over and guess
wot? - They're all *back* again!! :-)

You can't cancel other people's posts except perhaps on your PC.

Most ISPs won't let people cancel even their own posts.

Erm, where did he say that he wanted to cancel other peoples posts?



A quick response here before I put myself offline swapping stuff about - I'm
not interested in anything other than the crossposts that show up on my
*own* screen.

The only way I can control them on my computer (no-one else's) is to block
the posters (which asks me if I want all the messages removed). Occasional
crossposting is not good (although easy to miss at times - done it myself)
but incessant spamming of three different groups with effectively the same
old crap over and over again stinks, IMO. If Jooty wants to yank Pinky's
chain (again and again and again) and he's daft enough to let him then fine,
but not dragging half of audio usenet into all the time - I don't want
someone else choosing what ngs I get to read!! Ain't hard to comprehend, is
it?

Now, having swapped machines over, I've got them all back again!
