Here is a test message to show how message will look like after passing through the gateway:
Path: miriam.fuller.edu!gateway From: spam-registration@news.fuller.edu (No E-mail please) Newsgroups: linux.test Subject: test Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.3.96.970528112346.29574A-100000@waterf.org> Date: 28 May 97 18:23:51 GMT Sender: spam-registration@news.fuller.edu MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Lines: 5 Xref: miriam.fuller.edu linux.test:10

All the E-mail to spam-registration will be collected. I can forward the detected e-mail addresses to anyone interested in doing something about spam.
My Views on Spam ----------------
1. I dont like it
2. Spammers should not make us retreat into some secure hole somewhere on the internet.
3. I refuse to accept that spamming lead to restrictions on the freedom that we have on the Internet to communicate.
4. I will provide a special linux newsgroup linux.ads where everyone is free to spam as spam can. There is certainly a need to bring attention to worthy causes, worthy business deals etc but please through the proper channels.
If there are no major players objecting then that gateway for linux-kernel will go into operation tomorrow. Given the amount of private usenet gateways that I have seen in the last days that were used to post to this list I am certain that usenet access to the contents of the kernel list is something very important. And having a gateway that provides some isolation is better than a serious of renegade stealth gateways providing no protection at all.
