I know that I can post from the Groups buffer ... I hit 'a', and then
enter the group name. But that doesn't do any group-specific Message
buffer initialization that would happen if I entered the group first and
initiated a post from its Summary buffer.
Is there any way I can initiate a post from the Groups buffer and have
the Message buffer come up initialized as if I initiated it from from
the Summary buffer associated with that group? ... where that group
is either an nnml or an nnspool group?
The reason I want to do this is because I have a huge number of old
articles that I am storing within certain groups, and if I want to post
from any of these groups, it takes forever to enter them. If I could
initiate the post from the Groups buffer and have the group-specific
Message buffer initialization take place, then I could avoid this large
delay.
Thanks in advance for any pointers ... and Happy New Year!

Have you tried moving to the group from which you want to post, and then doing
"C-u a"? I suspect that might do what you're looking for.

Yep, that did it. Thanks!
