FUT /dev/null

or lugnet.bit-bucket???? http://news.lugnet.com/admin/suggestions/?n=20


Why not just allow FUT the posters own e-mail address?

Maybe allow member.nnn in the posting / follow-up fields?

Or even just a "to mail" checkbox for each?

The standard NNTP behavior is to set "Followup-To: poster" in the
header.

I'm doing that on this message, let's see if it works.

Looks like it works just fine (I overrode the followup-to rule in
order to post this message).  If you try to reply to the above message
in NNTP it sends e-mail.  Does it do the same for web and SMTP users?

Yes, but it forces me to use NNTP if I want to override your FUT. That's not
acceptable for a user with no NNTP available.
