No. Please don't.If you MUST post the *same* question to MULTIPLE groups, put all the
groups on the To line the first time you post.

If it was so stupid, why did it take you 12 days to respond? That said,If you MUST post the *same* question to MULTIPLE groups, put all the

I frown upon followup to flags. They make things go where you don't expect them to. I've therefore set a killfile rule for any such posts.That said,
cross-posting without using a "Follow-up To:" flag

off topic flame wars to escalate in several groups, with all groups tied
together for the duration of the war. Nothing like a 100 post off-topic
thread permeating several groups instead of just the one.

Which is silly. Say person A asks a question in groups X, Y, Z. Person B is subscribed to only group Y, and replies. The followup person A added directs person B's reply to group X, so person B cannot continue the discussion.I don't crosspost. I assume the crossposter *did* include "group X" in
his/her crosspost. Using "Follow-up to:" just directs all replies (including
flames and bogus advice) to just the one group instead of ALL of the infected
groups.

Why should people have to keep changing what groups they are subscribed to?I don't crosspost. I assume the crossposter *did* include "group X" in

Simply join the discussion in group X, or is that too difficult. Saves
hundreds of readers of the other groups from the nonsense. If he's too
lazy to go to group X, then I guess he just drops out. The world won't end.
Why do they have to? Doesn't your nwesreader allow for selective thread and subthread ignoring? The references header tells it what to do.provides a conduit for off topic flame wars to escalate in several

Off-topic and flame war posters seldom change the header "SUBJECT."
