However, a clever miscreant could have done it with NNTP or UUCP if he/she/it has such connections to rutgers. Jun 22 15:23 pyrdc received ng news.admin.ctl subj 'sendsys' from webber@rutgers.edu (Net.Rarebit) Jun 22 19:14 rutgers Duplicate article rejected. Path: rutgers!webber Even though pyrnj first received the article via pyrdc!uunet!husc6!rutgers!webber, we already see a lot of comp.mail.maps articles coming through that path also. It may be noteworthy that we received the 4 messages in the order 3 4 2 1, all through different paths. Whoever sent the series has a thorough, devious mind, with a knack for obfuscatory tactics. I cannot judge whether Dr. Webber is innocent or guilty. I find it disappointing that Webber, someone with a gift for original thought (such as USENET could use) has decided to apply himself to creating havoc, rather than productive efforts. The same may be said for the originator of the sendsys messages. These activities are childish and beneath contempt. I will refrain from further comment.
