It is unfortunate but the spam flood for the last couple of months has been rediculous.  So, it is good ridence to bad spammers.

When my ISP (largest telco in Australia) shutdown it's Usenet servers, I switched to Giganews.  I am still using tin as my news client, as I have for the last 30 years.

Long live Usenet.
