That's probably more my fault than Lane's.  I'm trying to see what
Opera's redirect does.  I was expecting a tracker.

Now I'm confused about whether or how you altered what you posted here.

The concept is that a tracker is best for everything.  If you want to
post anything it can generally be submitted to the parser and a tracking
URL obtained, even if there isn't an appropriate report, because any
item can be cancelled rather than reported.

When there weren't such wonderful trackers, spams were posted in
spamcop.spam because there's not supposed to be any spam posted in the
discussion groups spamcop.help or spamcop -- and there's not supposed to
be discussion in spamcop.spam -- so you have to post in spamcop.spam and
discuss here.  It is awkward and inferior to a tracker because of the
problem with the aforementioned linewraps induced by the newsreader.
