Platform: Intel Pentium, debian woody, GNU Emacs 20.7.2,
Oort Gnus v0.05 (CVS checkout from today)
After a CVS update today, I am no longer able to post to
news.gnus.org. It tries posting to the primary NNTP server:
Sending message 1 of 1...
Sending news with news.chello.no via nntp...
441 Posting Failed (Article NOT Posted to a Valid Newsgroup)
Couldn't send message via news: 441 Posting Failed (Article NOT Posted to a Valid Newsgroup)
This worked before the update, so I guess something has changed. I
tried searching the manual for "foreign" and "posting", but didn't
find anything relevant.
Thanx for all hints and tips!

`gnus-post-method' is supposed to default to 'current'. Does it do
that for you?

I have the same problem as Steinar here with oort 0.05 snapshot.
gnus-post-method is set to 'current.
(gnus-post-method 1 "nntp+news:hist.test") will give (nntp
"nntp-trd.uninett.no"), which is the gnus-nntp-server. I believe it
should be returning (nntp "news") for stuff to be working.
I am at a loss on how to fix it, though.

How about
(gnus-post-method nil "nntp+news:hist.test")
(I am unable to reproduce the bug.)

Works wonderfully. (nntp "news")
It seems that the problem I was having was due to this old wrapper
function in my .gnus:
,----
| (add-hook 'message-setup-hook
| (lambda ()
| (local-set-key "\C-c\C-c" 'message-send-and-exit-with-prefix)))
| (defun message-send-and-exit-with-prefix ()
| "Call the message-send-and-exit function with a positive number argument
| to make it post the message on the foreign NNTP server of a group, instead
| of the default NNTP server"
| (interactive)
| (message-send-and-exit 1))
`----
Removing this wrapper, letting C-c C-c call the default
message-send-and-exit fixes posting to foreign servers.
Using an old hand-me-down .gnus might sometimes have its issues, it
seems :)

Yes. But I have been using agent. Right now I have gone unplugged to
see if things will work then. Nope...
Sending news with news.chello.no via nntp...
441 Posting Failed (Article NOT Posted to a Valid Newsgroup)
Couldn't send message via news: 441 Posting Failed (Article NOT Posted to a Valid Newsgroup)
Next up to try, is removing the stuff I'm quoted on in Q3.9 of the FAQ
<http://www.faqs.org/faqs/gnus-faq/section-42.html>
ie.:
;; Hack for posting on foreign servers
(add-hook 'message-setup-hook
(lambda ()
(local-set-key "\C-c\C-c" 'message-send-and-exit-with-prefix)))

Removing the above text let me post, when I was plugged. I'm trying
once more to see if it works when I'm using agent.

Yes, that works as well. Perhaps the FAQ should be changed?
