There is nothing wrong with cross-posting a message to a small number of relevent newsgroups. That is why news programs have that function.

What is bad is posting copies of the same message to different news groups as different postings, or cross-posting messages to irrelevent or too-many newsgroups.

(Numerous other things are bad as well, of course.) Received on Tue Nov 19 2002 - 19:36:53 CST
