I'd like to buy a vowel^W Message-ID of the mystery message. Beyond that, the name appearing in the From header of a Usenet post is an optional descriptor. It can be nearly anything. It cannot be forged. (Email addresses are unique; names, not so much.)

The article was posted using the GG posting account associated with the valid ibshambat@gmail.com email address. First followup (troll), from "Bonita Montero ": () added comp.lang.c++. The troll includes the full quote of the original post. The information included in the From header, of this message, may or may not accurately reflect its origin. X-post continued in (, from =?UTF-8?B?w5bDtiBUaWli?= ). It is in this post that the erroneous claim, "I can find no server with 'quoted' post," appears.

There is nothing here to support this claim. If supporting evidence exists, please refer to it. This matter appears to be more the result of a trolled user glitch.
