Tips for posting a message in newsgroup: 1. If you just want to practice the mechanics of posting and verify that your messages really do go out to the rest of the world, you should post to MISC.TEST or ALT.TEST. Several sites monitor these newsgroups and automatically send e-mail responses to all messages that appear in them. These groups are also nice for practicing how to write messages with your text editor, because you don't have to worry about real people seeing your typing mistakes and formatting blunders. 2. If you want to exchange messages with "real people," but don't have anything in particular to talk about, try the newsgroup SOC.PEN PALS, which is intended specifically for this sort of thing. 3. If you will post a message, please don't "shout." No need to use ALL CAPS, as it's hard to read. 4. Before you post a question here, *please*please*please* scan through all the message titles in this newsgroup first. Certain questions get asked (and answered) over and over and over and over and over and over again. There's a fair chance that your answer may already be sitting in your news server. Don't forget to check the "previously-read" messages, too.
