I see someone has targeted several people who post to r.a.p and r.a.h and
begun forging their names in the "From" headers and posted troll-like posts
in an attempt to "Joe Job" the targets. Or it may simply be an attempt to
disrupt the newsgroups (more than usual, that is!). At the moment all the
forged posts _seem_ to have "albasani.net" in the "Path" header and can be
identified that way, though of course the perp may switch to an alternate
provider.

If you see an unexpectedly anal post from someone, check the headers of the
post in question and try to compare it to much older (presumably less anal)
posts from that same person.

Why not stick with one until you get bounced from it so you can move on to
the next?

I knew it was MX, good catch, Jim, thanks

Fake post, Dan. Not me.

I knew it all along.

I can't believe this. You screwed up, didn't you? In your haste to post,
you forgot to change IDs.

We thought you were sick but this? Playing McCormack AND MX all this
time?

Sheesh, good luck and adios into my permanent killfile, pervert.
