Hello again,

For reasons I won't explain, I mirror several newsgroups locally as
mail.  This is great until I want to post.

Following a previous suggestion, I tried to setup group parameters.
I've tried

  ((newsgroup . "comp.fonts"))

and 

  ((newsgroup . "nntp+news.berkshire.net:comp.fonts"))

and neither seems to work.  In neither case does "a" in the 
summary buffer do the right thing.  It sets up a post, but
lists "Newsgroups: my.funky.nnml.group.name" instead of
"Newsgroup: comp.fonts".  Furthermore, if I hack the Newsgroup
line, the post routine either complains that it doesn't like
the format of the header or that it can't post the news.

I figure I'm being stupid.  Will someone show me how?

--norm

P.S. this is 5.4.55
