Original newsgroups:
microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general,microsof t.public.it.internet_explorer
Followup-To: microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general

Why post to a newsgroup that uses a language (Italian) that you don't
understand to then try to have replies sent to an English newsgroup
where you still won't understand their Italian? It's not like the
Italians posting in the .it. newsgroup in their native language will
have their posts magically translated when their replies are pushed
over to the English newsgroup. If you don't speak Italian, Spanish,
Russion, Japanese, or any non-English language then why are you
posting in non-English newsgroups (and then rudely disconnecting the
discussion with inappropriate use of the FollowUp-To header when *you*
chose to crosspost to those other newsgroups)?

Sorry, my mistake.

Because almost all Italians, Spanish, Russians, etc. can read what little
English was in that message.

Besides, he speaks (reads and writes) perfectly good Italian.

Then why be rude by using the FollowUp-To header to disconnect the
replies made in the .it. group? FollowUp-To is used by spammers and
malcontents to hide negative replies to their posts. It has a use in
the NANAE groups to keep the sightings separate of any discussion
regarding those exhibits but it is rare when the FollowUp-To header is
appropriate anywhere else.

If a post was sufficiently related or on-topic to all of the
cross-posted newsgroups then the continued discussion is just as
related in those other newsgroups. It is rude to yank away the
discussion because you happen to have a favorite "home" group that you
like to visit (although the cross-posting that includes your home
group would still let you see the thread in your home group without
having to visit the other groups). If the continuation of the
discussion is inappropriate in the other newsgroups then it was also
inappropriate to cross-post to those other newsgroups, and it is more
insulting to then yank away the discussion by using FollowUp-To.
Cross-posting to other newsgroups and then using FollowUp-To means you
self-nominated your post as inappropriate on those other newsgroups.

If you use the FollowUp-To header then you should not have
cross-posted to the other newsgroups in the first place. If the
continued discussion is inappropriate in the other newsgroups then
your first post was also inappropriate. Since [I'm assuming that]
Russo isn't a malcontent or spammer, it seemed odd that he would even
employ the FollowUp-To header to be be rude to the .it. visitors that
may not visit the other newsgroups to watch any continued discussion.
