hmmm. Since applying the plonk rules on one of my newsreaders for those
trolling posts recently made, some people are also being plonked! A check
showed similar IP's for one of the Italian trolls and a person in the
midwest USA...an another in the _____________, USA.
I actually don't like the midwest person anyway, so it's no skin off my
butt, but I'm keeping the "blanked" person totally secret till I get to the
bottom of this.
Just a public service mssg.

And what is your public service message supposed to mean? The "italian"
troll posts were all coming from the same two IPs, and they were both
overseas from the US -- I check headers on all of them, and didn't see any
originating from the "midwest". If your "midwest person" was posting from
those IPs, then they weren't a "midwest" person. And if they're posting
from something say Earthlink or AOL, the IP range could be the same whether
they're posting from Dallas or Hoboken or Switzerland. Also keep in mind
that internet connections will quite often move from point to point,
connection to connection - it's not like two tin cans with a string.

Not sure just what you're trying to say, but I'd be a little careful about
what you imply.

Or more specific? I sometimes post through an Italian news server
(aioe.org) though I'm in the midwest. And my sent from address is sorta
bogus - it's one I used to have but don't live there anymore so it's
invalid. I use it to keep the spam down and because a moderated group
has it on their auto-approval list so my posts go right through.

Is aioe.org Italian? I sometimes use that, too, although I think never for
RCTY.

Higs,

I've used it as well, Katherine and Sue, and it's neither of you,
grin!
It's NOT the person I thought from _______ (which I'll now say was the
pacific northwest), but the midwest person IS on my _h_t list.
