>>>>> In article <CLOOS.92Dec5023816@theory.TC.Cornell.EDU>, I write: James> So, how do you set up gnus to post to a different nntp server James> than it is using to read? James> Thanks for any replies. Haven't gotten any replies yet, so I tried to see what I could do. I have not had much luck. I tried defvar'ing gnus-nntp-posting-server and changing the only reference to gnus-nntp-server to be found in gnuspost.el to use ...-posting-server if it was non-nil, and to use ...-server otherwise. This did not help. I did discover that gnus has to open the server to post just as if it were starting up a news reading session, unles of course the user is already reading news. Then the same connection is used. This begs the question: is it possible to be reading news from two different nntp servers in two different windows at the same time? It seems that this would be the simplest way of handling the situation. Not that this way is all that simple, from what I see. Any comments??? -JimC -- James H.
