Subject: [Q] stripping banners at the start of messages
Date: 23 Sep 2000 09:12:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <whg0mr7f9x.fsf@viffer.computas.no> (raw)

Platform: Gnus v5.8.8 (CVS checkout), XEmacs 20.4, linux

Some mailing lists have started putting those annoying banners at the
start of the messages instead of at the end.

I have tried getting rid of banners like this:

-------------------------- eGroups Sponsor -------------------------~-~>
Tired of searching for an apartment?  Try Viva!  It's fast and free.
Now serving Dallas, Houston, Austin, Phoenix, Denver and Las Vegas.
Rent by September 30th - get $100 cash!
http://click.egroups.com/1/9154/16/_/461700/_/968288860/
---------------------------------------------------------------------_->

with the following setting in the group parameters of the mail group
handling the list:

 (banner . "\n-------------------------- eGroups Sponsor -------------------------~-~>\n.*\n.*\n.*\n.*\n---------------------------------------------------------------------_->\n")

Is it me who has gotten the syntax of the banner setting wrong?  Or
doesn't banner suppresion work on banners not at the end of the
messages? 

Thanx!
