Hey Cameron,

Apologies for this. I have contacted the Fido system connected to the gateway
I run into news.bbs.nz and have asked them to urgently sort / check what's
up. If I don't get any joy from them within the next 24 hours I will delink
them so as to negate further probs.

My hunch is a BBS (yes they still exist :)) is taking a gated feed of this
newsgroup and is linked to more than one gateway so stuff is looping... not
good.

Stand by caller... we're working on this now.

Best, Paul
