TALK: [--- Paradigm BBS ---]

Dear Paradigm BBS of Japan,
 
     Congratulations on posting to the net!
     Am I correct in assuming that you are a Macintosh FirstClass BBS ?
     I notice that you are using SMTP to post.  Would this be the DELPHIC
          SMTP package ?  (I'm curious....)
 
 
     I noticed a couple of problems:
          1.)  You seem to be flooding alt.ascii-art with old messages.
 
          2.)  Your postings seem to appear on the network with both a
               leading USENET message header --AND-- a trailing FirstClass
               InterNET message header text attachment.  Should not the
               trailing header text attachment have been --TRIMMED-- before
               the gateway passed the message out onto the network?  What is
               the purpose of having a double header?
 
 
P.S.  Have you tried "test posting" to the ALT.TEST and MISC.TEST mailer
        testing groups first ?
