I don't know if TB is       one such - I am not currently subscribed to any moderated 'groups.              I think in some cases there's a sort of central clearinghouse for such       posts, so the address details are common across many 'groups (the       central clearinghouse then forwards the messages to the relevant       moderator based on the 'group name); I'm not sure if 'groups _can_ opt       out of that system, or if they have to become mailing lists or some       other construct.              >       > I would suggest google for documentation.       >       > ...       >       Probably the newsgroup "charter", but I've no idea if there's a central       repository of those. It's usually included in a post not long after a       'group's creation, but of course that may have disappeared before the       server's retention period (or yours). Some 'groups repost their charter       (sometimes with revisions, sometimes not) at intervals, such as       annually. Not sure if those include moderator details, though.              --       J.
