I don't know about that Steven, but this one would rather read in a
newsreader.  Unfortunately, this means that to start a reply on the web
requires going through the process of:

Press [H] to display the headers (I'm using Forte Agent).
Select'n'Copy the message id.
Open a browser.
Type in the url http://news.lugnet.com/[newsgroup]?n=[messageid]
Hit Enter
Wait while the message (and all the accompanying web-iage) is retrieved
Hit Reply

This isn't brain surgery, and you even memorize it after awhile.  But it's a
lot harder than just clicking the Reply button.

Not that I want verification to go away.  But it's a pain to read with a
newsreader, and reply via the web.
