What's so complicated > to expect that the followup would go to the same news server? > I also have found this very non-obvious, but what you have to do is to designate a "posting profile" to each group you want to post to. Right mouse on news.grc.com in the group list and select "Edit Selected Group's Preferences". That brings up a dialog where you can choose a posting profile from a pulldown. If there is no suitable posting profile on the list, you can add a new one using Edit->Edit Posting Profiles. When you set up the posting profile, you establish the server you want to use to post, and also what E-mail address, signature, and a few other items you want to use in those posts. I think the designer (Charles) would say that a given group /could have/ come from more than one server, so it wants you to specify which one to use. -- David
