Why do some people post articles with electronic machine pahts that can not
be reached?  The 'r' command to send a reply from readnews is then
rendered useless.  Some of them are kind enough to list alternates at
the bottom of the article, but others just can't be answered!
I can understand if not all machines a person uses receive netnews,
but every poster should be able to be reached on the machine articles
are posted from!  Good grief, why should a path that wraps around onto
2 lines have to be typed in by hand?  Lets all try to post articles
ONLY from machines where replies can be sent!
