[Not taking sides in the behind-the-scenes quarrels:] Indeed. As has been said many, many times in this thread, there is no, absolutely no, excuse for these cancels and Olivier should stop creating/sending them. Only with approval of and in cooperation with paganini.org and the two other servers, he/they could issue *local* cancel *commands* (not cancel articles), but AFAICT, he does *not* have admin approval on the two other servers and for paganini.org it is (AFAICT) a non-issue. Anyway, this subject is no longer up for discussion, because all has been said over and over and no amount of foot-stamping can/will change this malpractice to become accepted practice. And, as has been said umpteen times, don't cancel, but educate users (and yourself) to use/create their killfiles/filters.
