Subject: posting to a foreign server

Hey Gang,
I have been reading the microsoft.public.* newsgroups directly from
msnews.microsoft.com as a foreign server instead of from my main news
server. (Our regular news server isn't terribly reliable - I figure I will
actually get more of the messages if I read on Microsoft.)
The groups I am interested appear on my native group list as well as on
this foreign group. How do I ensure that I am /posting/ to the foreign
group as well as reading from it? When I do gnus-summary-post-news within
the foreign group, the Newsgroups header simply contains the newsgroup name
and nothing about the foreign-ness of the group.
The simple guess at doing nttp+msnews.microsoft.com:group.name in the
Newsgroups header did not work.
