If you are running Outlook 2000 on a Windows operating system
you have selected the wrong newsgroup. This newsgroup
comp.os.os2.mail-news is dedicated to IBM OS/2 news and
mail.

You should cut down on the number of groups you cross post
to and limit them to those that apply to your post.

The ISP at the other end may be suppressing the sending
of "read receipts" or the client that is used may not do it.
