Louisville, CO Lines: 13 When I post an article to more than one newsgroup, and one of teh newsgroups is moderated, the article is posted ONLY to the moderated newsgroup (by mail). I don't mind this, but I don't think the postnews program should do this SILENTLY - perhaps an added query or warning is needed? "comp.sys.sun is a moderated newsgroup, and must be posted to separately" It took me a while to figure out what was going on, and meanwhile, I kept increasing the number of groups I tried cross-posting articles to, because of the low number of responses. . .
