Comment 5 for bug 266263

Hi!

Best way to handle the crossposting issue would be the following:

Instead of speaking directly with the news server the newsrunner should write the outgoing messages into a queue. This queue is handled by another script that does the queue to news server stuff (eg gate_news?)

When another newsrunner (another mailinglist on the same host) is posting a message it should take a look if a message with the same message-id is already there. (maybe the queue name could be a hash of the message-id). Then it could modify the message with adding a second newsgroup name.

This should handle most problems.
