Someone must write an FAQ soley about this subject.
Ian, for the future, (if you're using Windis), it will knock the time in
the nntp.dat file back by one hour. After you've finished your news download
etc, edit your NNTP.dat file so that it's an hour earlier than it says.
Next time you log in, you will see your post.
Email me for more advice
