What, exactly?

If you mean cross- post, just put the name of two or more newsgroups in
the "newsgroups" line, separated by a comma (space optional).

Follow-ups to cross-posted articles are cross- posted automatically,
unless you *delete* one or more of the newsgroups in that line (or
different follow- ups have been set). I've removed b.m and cross- posted
this to demon.support.ip.turnpike [hint!] so that you can see how that
works.

To set follow- ups, use "Edit news header" and put the target newsgroup
(Or "poster", for replies by e-mail) in the "Followup-to" line.

I've set follow- ups to dist, too, so you can see the effect that that
has. Please e-mail me if you need further help (or "RTFM" - it's all in
there!).

A word of caution: cross-posting should only be used where it is
appropriate. Never cross- post to more than three newsgroups, as a rule
of thumb.
