Top stuff! The misses are, if anything, more interesting than the hits!

Aha, that would explain the lack of precision in many cases. A lot of
posters in this list/group go through NNTP (either with an NNTP client

Thanks, Alan. You are absolutely right, we are not using the
NNTP-Posting-Host header for obtaining the IP address.

Presumably the creators of the map have chosen to use a mechanism other
than NNTP-Posting-Host IP address to geolocate posters.

We've been working with Google Maps, and have created a web service to
map origins of emails to a group. As a trial, we've developed a map of
emails to this group at:
http://www.zeesource.net/maps/map.do?group=668
We've been working with Google Maps, and have created a web service to
map origins of emails to a group. As a trial, we've developed a map of
emails to this group at:
http://www.zeesource.net/maps/map.do?group=668
This represents emails sent to the group since October 27.
