You really ought to know that there isn't a mainstream news server on
the planet that still accepts cancel commands.

You ought to know that AT&T Worldnet honors cancel commands. Given
that they were the backbone for arpanet/usenet in the '80s, I'd
characterize them as mainstream.


You have a cite for that? Because if it is true I can set up a script
that will do a lot of good for the rec.aviation community.

In addition to being ineffective on nntp servers that do not honor
cancels, you may find that script to be a violation of Supernews'
Terms Of Use Agreement.

In addition to that, you wouldn't attempt to deny someone's right to
free speech would you? Ultimately such vandalism will only escalate
the issue.
