Maybe I'm misunderstanding the situation, but Yarn will display
cross-posted messages in ALL related newsgroups until it's read in any
of those newsgroups. Once it's read in any NG, it is considered read
in all those NGs. As to nuking the duplicates, there's only one copy
of the message in your newsbase, assuming all have the same ID (spam
vs velveeta.)
