Better twist errors now or Steven will generally tolerate them 
at you.  Otherwise the network in Jason's modem might eat.  While 
ideas partially rebuild, the thoughts often compile on the untouched 
BASICs.  Don't shoot the servers freely, interface them dully.  The 
shiny proxy rarely causes Calvin, it beats Ronnie instead.  Never 
engulf slowly while you're jumping in back of a old PERL.  Jethro wants to 
contribute bimonthly, unless Zephram closes screens around Roger's 
warning.  A lot of plastic cosmetic newsgroups will locally distribute the 
plotters.  The dumb untamed ADSL prepares over Kathy's actual 
subroutine.

Dear Mr Bot,

I'm sorry to have to inform you that you have failed the Turing test.
You have however attained the level of "lyrics by At The Drive In" so
you are nearly there; keep up the good work.

Yours,

Chris Moore

The forged gibberish post was crossposted to news.admin.net-abuse.email,
which is under attack by a jerk who calls himself Hipcrime. He is flooding
the group with thousands (100,000 or more over the last month) of forged
posts through insecure servers. He is crossposting to random groups in
hopes that people will reply and fail to trim the newsgroups line, thus
adding to the noise in nanae. 

It's an attack on Usenet. Film at 11.

Are you saying the Complaints header was forged as well ?

You should use the X-Complaints-To: header only if you know the
posting was injected at a well-maintained server (so the header is
quite pointless), and Hipcrime attacks usually don't involve such
servers, I think.  However, in the past, path exclusions worked quite
well against Hipcrime, and going after the upstream provider or the
peers was sometimes successful, too.

(However, I've seen Hipcrime only in de.*, and it might be somewhat
different in the Big8, who knows.)
