Just testing. Sorry about the noise.

Mart! Your test is a complete failure! It should have shown up in alt.test,
but instead it showed up here.
You should talk to your news server administrator to make sure there isn't
something wrong with their NNTP server.

The problem is that pulling all of alt.test down for a single test
message is a bit rich, especially since I am reading through
leafnode. Using Leafnode+news.individual.net (with their 180 day
retention) *will* use a lot of disk space, and time.
Turns out the problem is on their end. My leafnode was spitting out
errors about duplicate Message-IDs upstream. Putting
news.individual.net at the top of my config, and my ISP under that
fixed the problem.
You'll see this message probably a week late, but apologies again.

That's because some stupid company thinks that alt.test is their personal
server status check area and are putting in about 2 messages PER SECOND!
Nope. Pretty quick.

So anyway, it was like, 20:16 CET Feb 22 2004, you know? Oh, and, yeah,
Mart van de Wege was all like, "Dude,
Not that it matters any more, but you might be interested in learning
about these handy leafnode parameters:

I believe it was Mart van de Wege who said...
So why not just fake a question next time and avoid the scorn from the
little "Miss Manners'" of the world.

I use alt.test.test. If your news provider has it it is a low volume
