Nope - unless the title of the newsgroup has 'binary' or 'binaries' in it
they're usually unwelcome on usenet. That said, I don't think anyone minds
too much these days as long as it's kept under 50KB although a lot of ISPs
(mine included) snip any attachement at all from a post in a non-binary
newsgroup...

Ciao...

Why would you use them if you could just as easily put it online somewhere
and post the URL?

Boycott anything made in France & vacation somewhere else.

If it's a sig it should be correctly formatted - two dashes and a space.


While I am aware that is customary I am unaware of any RFC establishing it as a
preferred format much less anything describing a mandatory format.
