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.
