Thanks for the info. The attitude in here is something else.

Meaning we try to keep discussions on topic and minimise people
polluting the NG with off topic plugs for their non wine-based
websites?

Thank the lord for that!

Just because the Usenet is free for anyone to access, it doesn't mean
it's without either rules or control. Many discussion groups are
spammed to death. This one isn't and if that's the case, it's because
we try to discourage it. We don't usually react against the first or
second abuse, but if it's repeated regularly by someone who has
absolutely nothing to contribute about wine, then tough my friend,
it's YOU who is in breach of the rules, and hard nosed aggressive
responses won't endear you nor will they persuade people to visit your
precious site, or contribute to it.
