I don't know why but there seem to be at least two kinds of news servers as for the gnu.emacs.gnus newsgroup; [1]one allows nntp posting but doesn't forward articles to the list, [2]the other doesn't allow nntp posting but forwards articles posted to the list to the newsgroup. Some of [2] may moderate nntp-posted articles, i.e. forward articles to the list. For example: [1] news.eternal-september.org [2] news.individual.net Both are open to people for free but both don't forward nntp- posted articles to the list. :-< I guess this problem is due to some newsservers that took it for granted that the group is moderated. As for [2] the nntp command `list newsgroups' returns: gnu.emacs.gnus News reading under GNU Emacs using GNUS (in English). (Moderated) (There's no entry for gnu.emacs.gnus in [1].) Whereas isc.org says in ftp://ftp.isc.org/pub/usenet/CONFIG/newsgroups.gz as: gnu.emacs.gnus News reading under GNU Emacs using GNUS (in English). A possible workaround may be the one like this article. ;-) _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
