I noticed I have 6gb of blocked articles in my emp.phn logfile so I
thought I would investigate. 

 

It appears that groups that are moderated got a lot of messages
blocked since it seems the mod approves them in batches. 

 

One thing I've not see is how to inject messages back into the
newsfeed either from a single file of articles or a number of
separate files. 

 

I'm sure I'm not the only one to have come across this and wonder how
other admins have solved the issue. 

 
I'm not pretending to be a News administrator here, but it's my
understanding that the tradition is to allow the moderator to perform
spam countermeasures, and that Cleanfeed should be bypassed.
 
Only if there is some sort of attack on the moderated newsgroup in
question should the issue be handled locally, by temporarily rejecting
all messages till the attack is dealt with.

Thanks but it doesn't answer my question. I never mentioned there was
an attack on a moderated group, or any other group for that matter.
