[net.news] orphans retraction

rees@apollo.uucp (Jim Rees) (11/15/85)

Michael Lutz has pointed out to me that ritcv does not run notes.
The orphaned response that came from his machine was apparently
a reply to an orphaned response generated on some other machine.

Some of us take the radical view that orphaned responses should be
rejected rather than passed on to other sites.  The sites feeding
ritcv have apparently not taken this view.
