Well you have two To: headers, and I saw a cancel from you coming by earlier today.
Apart from that, it looks quite alright :)

If you are really pedantic, check out the ietf draft on messages both posted and
mailed..

Beats me. I hate newsgroups, I'd rather have all newsgroups come in as mailinglists.

Actually, I'm working on a system to do just that.

Here is my minimalistic poster: :) (goes into .qmail-default on my qnews user :)
# from | newsgroup
#|./postto $EXT
|{ set;cat } | qmail-inject peter
|{ echo -ne "POST\nPath: koek.attic.vuurwerk.nl!peter\nNewsgroups: $EXT\n" ; cat |
grep -v ^Received: | grep -v "^ " ; echo -e ".\nQUIT\n" } | /usr/local/bin/nc
news2.cistron.nl 119 | qmail-inject peter

(those last 3 lines are actually 1 line :)

Greetz, Peter.
