I'm concerned about the spam implications of a public newsgroup. If we do
have a newsgroup gateway, is there some way to either:
. Restrict the reading (not just posting) of messages to members
. Contort/remove e-mail addresses from the newsgroup messages
I never post to newsgroups anymore unless it's under a throwaway e-mail
address.
