We're talking about a mailing list here. DejaNews just archives
Usenet groups. I must admit I hadn't thought about address rippers
accessing my address from the Yarn archive (and I'm almost as paranoid

The X-newsreader is inserted by YEP. It can also insert the archive
killer just as easily.

If it was possible, it'd have to be inserted by Yes which I haven't
used for quite a while now. I've got an old config file and it
doesn't have any reference to such.
