A bunch of duplicate articles in various groups are starting to come in here. They appear to have been reposted in Japan. A typical header: >Path: uwvax!dogie.macc.wisc.edu!decwrl!lll-winken!sun-barr!ccut!titcca!cc.titech.ac.jp!hmatsuda >From: ptownson@delta.eecs.nwu.edu (Patrick A.

I am a staff at TIT (in Japan). We were handling unprocessed news in our site and reposted six of those news with the command 'recnews'. (This command was not proper for our purpose, we notice now.) The message id of your news was rewritten with my own message id by the default mail system and we forgot to specify the Distribution part, in addition. Your news therefore was broadcasted in the world. I am awfully sorry for having done such a poor operation. Yours sincerely. -- --------------------------------------------- hmatsuda@cc.titech.ac.jp (Hiroyuki Matsuda) Computer Center, Tokyo Institute of Technology Oh-okayama 2-12-1, Meguro-ku, Tokyo, JAPAN 152 (03) 726-1111 ext. 3299 ---------------------------------------------
