The Fidonet gateway egsgate.fidonet.org is retransmitting old news with
new message-IDs and bogus From: lines. If you want to file a complaint,
postmaster@f98.n250.z1.fidonet.org or postmaster@egsgate.fidonet.org
should be the right place to send it.
Don't expect a prompt, courteous response. The last time I reported an
egsgate problem, I got no answer at all, so I posted a message in
news.admin. The egsgate operator ranted at me for weeks, denying that
there was a problem and accusing me of ill will.
It might be more efficient to just install a global kill for Fidonet.
