Another neat trick if you wish to maintain your privacy is to not post.

HOW TO REPLY WHEN AN ARTICLE BEGINS WITH x-no-archive: yes

Some users place x-no-archive: yes on the first line of the body of
their articles to prevent archiving by Deja News and other commercial,
profit making usenet indexers.

If you choose to respond to a post with

x-no-archive: yes

on the first line of the body of its article, please help those who do
by placing

x-no-archive: yes

ON THE VERY FIRST LINE OF THE BODY OF YOUR REPLY.

If your x-no-archive: yes does not appear on the very first line, the
article will get archived by Deja News. Please help those who wish to
keep their articles out of Deja News by doing this the right way. Don't
worry if you don't want to, or don't agree for whatever reason. It is
not a big deal. There are those who want everything they post in Deja
News. They are entitled to their perspective too.

Thank you for your assistance.
