So was the crossposting which, by the way, you didn't remove.

Er... sorry? I was merely suggesting that the cross-posting be trimmed.
Which is what I was trying to accomplish when I set the "Follow Up."
I'm sorry to have offended such delicate sensibilities.

I checked the post you're responding to, and found that I had no problem
composing a response to it. Maybe their's a problem with your newsreader.
(Later) Oh, I just saw the rest of this thread. You're not complaining
that you had any problem responding to RKM - you're complaining that he
"set followups" - which is the right of any poster.
The only hoops that you had to go through was to alter the newsgroup list
in your reply to continue to crosspost. Adding a group back into the list
shouldn't be any more difficult that it was to put it there in the original
post.
Naturally, you are as free to crosspost as any other user is to not
crosspost. And if you believe that a user should not be able to set
followups, then you should take that issue up with your software author
(you can reach them at www.microsoft.com), because they are the ones who
chose to recognise a followup header as legitimate.
