It seems only appropriate to say this in net.sources, which is obviously
the wrong group. I have just run a series of tests of control messages
and cancelling. A properly-formed control message will not show up in
the newsgroup whose message it is cancelling. In other words, if you
read a "cmsg cancel" message in net.sources, that means it didn't work.
Properly-formed control messages get shunted to group "control".
