wasnt there a way to report the post to the isp? or newsgroup provider so they can delete it?

Not really. USENET is decentralized, in other words by now that message has propagated to thousands of other servers so there is no single place you can go and delete a message. It is out there for good. Google will allow you to delete a message from "Google's" archive, but it is only one server out of thousands. Besides, few ISPs will even respond at all unless there is a prohibition in our group charter.

Not really. In most cases you can send a complaint to the news provider that is responsible, but the original post came through Google which is notoriously irresponsible and generally unwilling to educate or police their user base. It's pretty much futile to deal with them.

Most newsreaders support the cancel post command. There are no guarantees due to the nature of the proliferation and the fact that some servers ignore cancel posts from a user to prevent breaking a thread. Theoretically yes, practically no. Use Google Groups and keywords delete usenet post for more info. You can delete it from Google Groups with the same autenticated email address account in the post. You can also ask but I wouldn't hold my breath. The ISP accounts like abuse and postmaster in the headers are generally reserved for authorities otherwise a bitbucket for user complaints.

Dear teafan1, Ankit, teapandya,and kum... Seeing that we seem to be the only ones who understand the true nature of topic for this blog/ usenet titled Where to buy Tea online! I hope that some suggestions pose to be useful for you. I have had direct experience with such companies as the following:

I hope that this will aid you in your search as to purchasing tea online. It seems that some of us here already have our minds made up and prefer not to explore outside of the box. Good luck in your search

P.S. a friendly suggestion for teafan1, if you are indeed a customer promoting someone elses business you must be careful in how you do so. You don't want to ruffle some feathers and stir up the chicken coop and in the process damage someone's name. Anyway good luck in your quest for tea

Since you opened this "rudeness" can of worms, I should point out how impolite it is to barge into a community without any knowledge of its structure, organization, or etiquette. Just watch some of the threads for a while first, learn what a message group is, learn how things work here, and then you will have some authority to tell us how to do things.

hello!

i happen to be a manufacturer of tea having estates in india, nepal and china. the links i recommended are of people who i think really work hard to maintain quality standards.

thanks ankit lochan

Interesting. If you are indeed Ankit Lochan then you are a very distinguished person. I admire your articles, am impressed by your Foundation and by your efforts to increase diversity of teas in India.

I have just an eensy, teensy concern that I am sure you can clear up immediately. First, you mention your owning estates in China. When did you acquire them. They are not mentioned on any of your on line sources? Second, you are using an entirely different e-mail address from the ones you list there. That's puzzling.

I contacted your assistant in Silgiri today. He mentioned where you currently are today and has already forwarded my enquiry to you. It would be somewhat reassuring if you would let us know that location and also reply to this e-mail from your regular address. That would reassure us that you are indeed The Ankit Lochan. I genuinely hope that you really are. Anyway, just tell us which city in which country you are now in.

It is looking quite likely that this is indeed the real Ankit Lochan. If so, I apologize for my wariness and defend it only because of the teafan1 arrival and the dubious conversation about he/she and a few others being the only ones who understand the "true nature" of this "blog." Mr. Lochan is a distinctive heavyweight in the tea field.
