No point.Its just a bunch of fuckwits cross posting.
Easter holidays and all that jazz.
Add em to your killfiles.
Dont I wish.
What "authorities"? Their ISPs? Easy. Look at the headers and find the NNTP Posting Host. Looks like you use Outlook Express so I can't tell you how to see the headers, but if you use Agent, when viewing the message, just mash the "H" key and voila! headers...
Here's are the headers from your original post:
