    No actual headers were harmed in this process (the headers remain intact).

    Also note, I'm adding new css classes for everything I add now. So,
    Subject display in short_headers has it's own class, From, it's own,
    etc.

    I've been adding classes and cleaning up some css and html today, so
    this change discussed in this thread is currently in a non-pushed branch (html). I'll push it to devel maybe tomorrow or Monday. So far it seems
    ok. Still a lot to learn.

    As you can see from your current test, a long Subject should not remove
    the From info. At least that's the plan.

    I assumed your test was to see if a long subject line truncated the
    poster's name, but it does not. Unless it is for you, but I'm not you so
    I don't know what you're seeing.

    I'm attaching a pic of what I see for your message, and I see (darius)

    The purpose of 'short_headers' is to take up as little space as possible
    for header info. This is more toward a Forum look, not necessarily what
    a seasoned Usenet user would expect.

    The software provides three options:

    The shortest header:
    https://postimg.cc/dLgDpzWH

    The standard 'short_header':
    https://postimg.cc/K4vKM7kN

    and The full header:
    https://postimg.cc/WhPFWRh2

    An admin can choose whatever they prefer. Maybe in the future I'll make
    it a User Configuration selection, but not right now.

    Ok, you are smart developer, smart admin
    but what matters is Usenet Standard

    so "From" is the reqired header line

    not to fool readers about the name of a genuine poster of a message.

    Appending the name of the genuine poster to the Subject line is against
    the Usenet Standard and is misguiding to the whole Usenet Community
    world-wide
    --



    The required header lines are "From", "Date", "Newsgroups", "Subject", "Message-ID", and "Path". The optional header lines are "Followup-To", "Expires", "Reply-To", "Sender", "References", "Control",
    "Distribution", "Keywords", "Summary", "Approved", "Lines", "Xref", and "Organization". Each of these header lines will be described below.

    There is no intention to fool anyone.

    the Usenet Standard and is misguiding to the whole Usenet Community world-wide

    I'm not sure it has any effect on anyone reading articles not using
    these sites. The rest of the Usenet community doesn't know, or probably
    care how the info is presented on some web interface they don't use.

    Standard for Interchange of USENET Messages

    That is correct, the From: header is required as stated above for the
    "Standard for Interchange of USENET Messages"

    This does not describe how a reader may present the information, but how messages are exchanged. Nothing is changed in the actual headers of
    messages on these sites, only the forum style display. Each admin can
    choose their own preferred display.

    Click on 'Show Headers' and you'll see the From: line remains in the
    actual article Usenet header. Without it, you can't sync with other
    servers, which is why we maintain the "Standard for Interchange of
    USENET Messages".

    I'll probably add a configuration toggle so users can change it if they
    wish, but that is not done yet.

    Electronic mail, Usenet message, follow standards developed and set up
    by The Universal Postal Union for surface mail.

    What's more, every Usenet message is copyrighted, so any modification to
    the content of the Subject line violates copyrights.

    AI, Open AI, Chat GPT
    can read content generated by your server as ASCII or as images
    converted into ASCII via OCR.

    AI, Open AI, Chat GPT can publish such content on the Internet or use to
    feed knowledge databases, generating mess, since the original poster can
    find his, her posts sent to Usenet, modified without any authorization
    or his, her consent.

    So every field in the header of Usenet message must be kept clean,
    unmodified, as selected and entered by the genuine author of the message
    and every Usenet reader must follow the above standard.

    How does the UPU control Usenet? Creating standards for the efficient
    transfer of postal mail around the world, sure, but Usenet is not
    'Postal'.

    What's more, every Usenet message is copyrighted, so any modification to
    the content of the Subject line violates copyrights.

    can read content generated by your server as ASCII or as images

    find his, her posts sent to Usenet, modified without any authorization
    or his, her consent.

    I don't doubt one bit that AI can screw up data. It already does, and it
    will continue to do so. Just look at Google search results that snip
    content and push the rest together, which can make data from a page look
    like it means something completely different. Or more often, make no
    sense.

    So every field in the header of Usenet message must be kept clean, unmodified, as selected and entered by the genuine author of the message
    and every Usenet reader must follow the above standard.

    I disagree that the UPU has any authority over how some lame web forum
    presents it's data.

    Compliance to UPU standards is also checked, with a dedicated UPU
    project. Check details in this page.

    Good. I'll wait for a letter from them. Otherwise, admins can choose the

    Take a look at it now and see if it's more to your liking.

    I want the option to remove a line from the display, but I've added

    The "From:" field in Usenet is crucial for several reasons:

    Identification: It helps identify the sender of a message, allowing
    readers to know who is posting. This is important in community
    discussions, where the reputation and credibility of the poster can
    influence the conversation.

    Attribution: Proper attribution allows for accountability. Users can
    follow up on discussions, respond to specific individuals, or reference
    past posts more easily.

    Filtering: Users can filter or sort messages based on the sender.
    This is useful in managing the volume of posts, especially in busy
    newsgroups.

    Avoiding Spam and Abuse: Clear identification helps in moderating
    content. If a sender is known for spamming or abusive behavior, others
    can easily avoid or report them.

    Context: The "From:" field can provide context regarding the
    messagerCOs content. Different users may have different perspectives, and knowing who is speaking can help readers understand the viewpoint being presented.

    In summary, the "From:" field enhances communication, accountability,
    and organization within the Usenet community.

    The From: data was never missing, it was placed in a new location.
    Filtering still works on the site by From:.

    Now it says, 'From: ' because I aim to please.

    Anyoone who was using a newsreader to view the site received the 'From: ' header just like from any other nntp server.

    works. HererCOs an overview of how these protections work and examples of violations that can lead to court orders:
    Copyright Protection

    Automatic Protection: Copyright protection is automatic upon the
    creation of an original work fixed in a tangible medium (e.g., text,
    music, images).
    Registration: While not required, registering a work with the U.S. Copyright Office provides legal advantages, including the ability to sue
    for statutory damages and attorney fees.
    Exclusive Rights: Copyright holders have exclusive rights to
    reproduce, distribute, perform, display, and create derivative works
    based on their original work.

    Common Violations

    Unauthorized Reproduction: Copying and distributing copyrighted
    material without permission, such as pirating software or sharing music
    files.
    Public Performance: Playing copyrighted music in public venues
    without appropriate licenses can lead to violations.
    Digital Distribution: Uploading copyrighted videos or images to
    websites without authorization.
    Circumventing Copyright Protection: Bypassing digital rights
    management (DRM) protections on software or media.

    Legal Consequences

    Violations can result in various court orders, including:

    Injunctions: Courts may order the infringer to stop using the
    copyrighted material.
    Monetary Damages: Courts can award statutory damages (up to $150,000
    per work for willful infringement) or actual damages (the amount the
    copyright owner lost).
    Destruction of Infringing Copies: Courts may order the destruction
    of materials that violate copyright.
    Attorney's Fees: In some cases, the prevailing party may recover
    attorney's fees.

    Enforcement

    Copyright holders can enforce their rights through:

    DMCA Takedown Notices: Under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, copyright owners can request the removal of infringing content from
    websites.
    Litigation: Copyright owners can sue for infringement in federal
    court.

    By utilizing these mechanisms, copyright protection aims to balance the
    rights of creators with the public's access to information and culture.

    Much better now
    Subject line is again separated from the
    From: (By) line

    Subject line is oversized

    Removing the name of the poster from the Subject line matters,
    since I am followed by a hater, whose solely activity is to follow my
    threads, making hateful comments.

    Appending Subject line with his name,
    you have promoted the hater
    since many assumed I added his name in the Subject line
    on purpose

    The fact that you noticed the difference in font for the Subject line and
    the From info indicates it may be separate information.

    BTW, you do realize that the articles are only displayed this way on this
    site, is that correct? Once the article is sent, every user's newsreader displays it however it wishes. The From: info is NOT to the right of the Subject: line in the ACTUAL message header.

    Every my thread is followed by the same hater, posting short hate

    I can ask my friends to fund your efforts.

    Subject line is badly formatted as a single line, since
    Author and date are sticked to the Subject
    and move left, rights, depending on the length of the Subject

    Please provide a screenshot of this. What page do you see this? What
    browser are you using?

    The poster is identified as (From: darius) when viewing the article. When viewing the list of articles, they are completely separate. The word 'By:'
    is on the threads list page, not the article page.

    I need to see a screenshot to determine if your browser displays
    differently than others.
