It's no fault of the system, it's a fault of the sender: on usenet, cross
posting is *evil* and should be avoided

The self appointed "administrators" are the ones issuing the cross-posted
messages. Yes, you should always consider when replying to a crossposted
message, but in this case, unless you get approval, the message is lost.
It's the self appointed "adminstrators" who are at fault. They failed with
their moderated newsgroup (virtually nobody posts there), so they inflict
themselves on the rest of the hierarchy.

You only have to trim the newsgroup list to a subset you actually want
to post to, not including moderated groups, and there is then no
problem. Not that I am supporting the spam, but it is one's own fault
if one replies to all groups and the message is not propagated.


Quite right, it is each our own responsibility and choice which groups our
posts are submitted to.
