    Not really complaining, I'm happy to take old articles, but just
    wondered if this was someone's config error.



    I just receive this:
    <01cf36e8$Blat.v3.2.0$c03e52fa$3e7c904d9136@127.0.0.1>

    And on the path: I see this

    It's the newsserver corradoroberto.it grepping history from
    blueworldhosting (I think with pullnews), and inject to his
    newsserver, without filtering in newsfeeds file, and resend him to
    all his peers (you included)


    Sincerely



    Thanks for the investigation. We were all noobs once I guess..some of
    us still are lol.

    The administrator of news.corradoroberto.it was using suck, pulling from my server and those articles made their way back out through other peers of news.corradoroberto.it who accepted the old articles. The injection-bsd1 node is only in a handful of articles on my server, so it likely won't do you much good to filter based on that.

    News administrators should have a proper article cutoff set on the servers which they peer with others. If only the administrator of news.corradoroberto.it made the mistake originally it would not have leaked beyond.
