And I'd like an update to NNTP that prevents reposting the exact same
message repeatedly to the same newsgroup.

How is it Outlook's fault that you don't bother to upgrade to the latest
version of it that incorporates a Bayesian anti-spam filter?

How is it Outlook's fault that you don't avail yourself of plenty of
more robust anti-spam products than Microsoft will ever incorporate into
any of their e-mail clients, and many of which are free, like SpamPal?

How is it Outlook's fault that you are too lazy to bother digging into
the Yahoo Plus mail options to disable "Include Bulk Mail folder when
downloading new messages"? It is Outlook's fault that you don't bother
to check Yahoo's own help
(http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mail/pop/pop-30.html)?
