Original-Lines: 19 User-Agent: Gnus/5.070084 (Pterodactyl Gnus v0.84) Emacs/20.3 Precedence: list X-Majordomo: 1.94.jlt7 Xref: main.gmane.org gmane.emacs.gnus.general:23126 X-Report-Spam: http://spam.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.gnus.general:23126 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. -- Jack Vinson http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~vinson/ Zippy: This PIZZA symbolizes my COMPLETE EMOTIONAL RECOVERY!!
