Gmane. Why didn't you say so?! =:^) That's actually testable here, if you don't mind posting the group name and overview details (subject/author/date/time/etc) for something you're seeing as missing. And we can continue the discussion either here or in the gmane.discuss group, if you prefer. I've seen a few obvious spams not show up, but nothing major. And they normally archive, so in general once it's there, it's there. However, I know gmane has occasional hiccups from time to time. Looking in gmane.discuss, I see a thread about a problem in early April (6-8ish) and again in early May (8-ish, but that was only SSL related AFAICT), but nothing other than that. Also, and this could well be it especially on some lists, if the poster sets the x-no-archive header (or first line of the message, for those who don't have clients that allow customized headers), AFAIK gmane DOES honor that and delete the message at some point (maybe 30 days? haven't looked up the details in awhile), so you can check a newer post from the same person and see if perhaps they set that header, which would explain things. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
