Are you sure? I've posted to other freebsd MLs with that kind of ID. If you're reading this, I think you'll find "localhost." in the ID. My computers are all named localhost and I don't see that changing. I wouldn't care to waste time figuring out how to munge the message ID. I wasted several days recovering from whatever they did last summer that stopped my posts cold, mid-thread.
