True, the last time I saw it it only worked on a local (restricted) server
here.
Still, it was a great source of fun to witness the confusion after
cancelled posts, where half the users missed a post the other half had
already seen. Fortunately (*ahum*) the nntp servers I use now are a little
buggy, so I'm sure to miss some posts regardless....
