Or, just ignore his copyright altogether, and let him prove its
defensibility in court. Can you actually enforce that EVERY usenet
server carry out your wishes? What if one of them strips off the
(non-standard) X-Copyright header and carries the message further? I
would hope that a server admin is not liable in court years down the
track for setting something up and leaving it to its own devices.

Anyone can write anything. Good luck actually making it mean anything.

Of course, getting all your posts plonked is the safest way to comply
with copyright, so I think that's what's going to happen...
