Which is fine, but what if you don't want to post to usenet?

As a matter of interest, why wouldn't you want to post such a query to usenet ...??

Best regards.

1) Because posting to usenet usually ends up getting your email address
added to spam lists
2) Because not everyone on Expats will read the "usenet" groups - only the OZ (amongst others) group
3) One the reasons suggested for splitting them up is because not everyone wants to post to usenet.

As mentioned in your profile, your email address is never sent to usenet unless you specificly add one. By default, the email [email protected] is used.

The option to prevent your posts propogating to usenet will be re-introduced over the next few days. This will allow you to post in the usenet groups but keep your post limited to this site. This option was there previously, but only a few people actually used it.
