How about: You keep all ther Newsgroup: Headers, but just don't
process them. i.e., lugnet.* is in the header, but it still doesn't
show up on the lugnet.* group.

But when a lugnet'er posts a follow-up to one of those messages, the
follow-up will go to those lugnet.* groups.  Technically, I don't think
it's a problem, but it will fragment threads.

And if the original message had other Usenet groups, the lugnet'er's
follow-up will bounce because of the extra newsgroups.

If lugnet.com is changed to ignore invalid/unrecognized entries in the
Newsgroups header, then someone could use lugnet to post to any Usenet
ng, as long as the article was cross-posted to RTL.
