The gateway works by having an entry in the sys file for a fake system, which pipes into a special mail program. Thus net.space.news could be excluded. However, I dont really see why it should be excluded. Dont you want arpa people to see this stuff? What net.space is is a sort of experiment to see what happens if the same material is available both in net. immediate distribution and fa. delayed and digested form. Its a bit inefficient, but its a test on one list and I dont plan to do any others anytime soon. If people really dont like it Ill flush it.
