Reading from news server A and post/follwoing to news server B

Reading from news server A and post/follwoing to news server B

[Nelson Jose dos Santos Ferreira]

Hi all!

I have a little problem... The news server of my organization is badly
configured (and I can't get them to fix it...) in a way I simply cannot get my 
posts outside, i.e., they get to our news server but do not get propagated... 

So, what I'm asking is:

Does anyone can help me configure Gnus to continue to read news locally and
when I need to post (or follow up) to do it to another server...

BTW, does anyone know of news server who accept posts from the outside ? Those 
I tried denied me access...

I heard that nic.funet.fi would allow outside access.

Thanks in advance,

	Nelson.

See the documentation for gnus-post-method.  That ought to do it.

If you have an alternative server in gnus-secondary-select-methods,
you can submit your new article with `C-u 0 C-c C-c'; you will be
prompted for the server to which to post.

Openly-accessible NNTP ports are considered to be rather the scourge
of Usenet, being spammers' routine entry points.  Most, even UUNET's,
are being closed.
