It is just oddly named. When viewing a single message, there is an option "Original Format" which basically means "Show Headers". I don't know if you can search on their contents, but it is easy enough to follow up a hunch. Christian. |

Whilst that may be true I believe that for any one dial-up session, you are assigned a single IP address for the duration of that session. If one is bored enough, one can find a large number of occasions where "News" and "IMM" have posted within minutes of each other.

Yours may be. Not all IP addresses are dynamic, and to imply that it is
so shows your ignorance. That's pretty rare in a domestic setting, though. I used to have one via Demon, but I wouldn't want one now as it is too dangerous; IP masquerading gives useful extra security for free. Couple it with a solid state router with all incoming TCP connections dropped silently and you're relatively safe from cold calling attacks. I wouldn't want my actual computers (as opposed to the router) to have a genuine IP address at all, dynamic or static. Much happier that they are known as 192.168.0.x, as no router on the net is going to find them. Christian. |

Is this a magnet fuel thing?
You really make me laugh, sometimes! You're are surely not denying that you are the same person? The evidence is overwhelming and the two identities have similar attitudes and beliefs, so there is no shame in admitting it. In any case, it isn't a magnet fuel thing. What is your opinion on a fuel additive that can be used to help clean and regenerate a catalytic converter on a car? Would you like to denounce the idea? Christian. |
