while this is a workaround and not a solution to the problem you're
pointing out, is to read lugnet either with NNTP or through the
news-by-mail.  Both will only show you a message once, no matter how
many groups it's crossposted to.

I imagine that when Todd gets around to making the web site able to keep
track of which messages you've read, this feature will be available there
too. But I don't think that's going to be available for a while. :(

I think it already does that - if you rate a message, it'll appear as
rated by you in all the groups it's been crossposted to (with the little
red arrow by the rating)...  So all you need to do it rate each message
you read ;)
