Default non propagation from UH

According to Google my last post to comp.sys.sun.admin was just
over seven months ago:

> From: Gregory <ccsqihg@herts.ac.uk>
> Newsgroups: comp.sys.sun.admin
> Subject: Re: ctl/caps swap in Solaris 8
> Date: Tue, 23 Mar 2004 19:10:42 +0000

In fact I have attempted to post three times since then but I
only just realised that those posts never made it out of UH!
From what I can gather, news stopped propagating out sometime
between 2004-03-28 and 2004-05-12, but no-one noticed till
last week!

OK, so why am I telling you all this? Because I have switched
to reading and posting to this group from a personal account
rather than from the UH system and I wanted to create a record
of the fact that I am the same Ian Gregory that has been posting
to comp.sys.sun.admin from UH since 2001-03-16 (or possibly even
earlier). I am still working as a Solaris admin at UH (but not
the usenet admin I hasten to add!).

ps, the reason I am using an invalid from address is that I got
hit hard by SWEN at my UH address. In fact at one point my email
address was receiving more viruses than all 30,000 other UH
accounts combined, and had to be disabled to avoid overloading
the virus checker! If you want to contact me personally there
is a contact form on my website.
