When posting a article, GNUS uses the "basename" of the newsgroup for
the default distribution.  Most of the time, the distribution is
invalid.

INN makes it very easy to drop articles with bogus distributions and
newsadmins have started to do so (It's about time, IMHO).  If your
posting site accepts bogus distributions, but its neighbors don't no
one but you and the users at your site are going to see your posting.

Since GNUS runs underneath Emacs, GNUS tends to have a more
sophisticated user profile than other newsreaders.  Still, I wonder if
people realize that their postings will be junked if they don't change
the distribution.

If a new version of GNUS is not going to be released for a while,
perhaps it would be worthwhile for a 3.14.2 version to be created
which includes a fix for this (plus the speedup package???)
