Is there an exception being thrown?  If not, then the message is
guaranteed to be posted.

If no exception is thrown, then it was successful.

Then an exception is likely being thrown that you are not catching.
You should be wrapping your code in try..catch blocks, ie:

    IdNNTP2->Username = "********";
    IdNNTP2->Password  = "********";
    IdNNTP2->Host = "my-news-server.com";
    IdNNTP2->Port = 119;

    try
    {
        TIdMessage* msg = new TIdMessage(NULL);
        try
        {
            msg->ReplyTo->EMailAddresses = "Test@test.co.uk";
            msg->From->Address = "Test@test.co.uk";
            msg->Body->Text = "Testing Text Post";
            msg->Subject = "Testing Text Post";

            IdNNTP2->Connect();
            try
            {
                IdNNTP2->SelectGroup("0.test");
                IdNNTP2->Post(msg);
            }
            __finally
            {
                IdNNTP2->Disconnect();
            }
        }
        __finally
        {
            delete msg;
        }
    }
    catch(const Exception &)
    {
        // error posting the message, do something
    }
