How can I cross-post a message to more than one newsgroup?

When you are in the Compose Window (either replying to a message or composing a new message), click on the Internet Header button (it looks like a dark hand over a piece of paper). Then click on the ellipse button to the right of the "Newsgroups:" text box. You can either select the newsgroups from the "Subscribed Group" list (newsgroups that you have already subscribed to), or enter a newsgroup into the "Additional Groups" text area.

What should I do if a message on the newsgroup is inappropriate?

ATS FAQ Section 1: The Newsgroup
First, take a deep breath. Go away. Do something else for fifteen minutes -- or 24 hours, whatever it takes. If it is in violation of the charter or listed in the "things I shouldn't post" section above, a quiet, polite, private email to the poster will usually do the trick. Don't even get into the politics of it; just refer them to the charter or FAQ, diplomatically point out where they're in violation, and leave it at that.

Can I post ads on the newsgroup?

news.answers/homebuilt-comp-FAQ
a general rule, alt.comp.hardware.homebuilt is not a forsale group and thus does not allow advertising. An exception is made for advertising that is directed specifically for electronics homebuilders, and is not otherwise available on the net in general. Examples of this are device programmers and electronics parts. Trading between homebuilders is encouraged. Items that fit well into other existing forsale newsgroups should not be advertised here.

I posted a message to the newsgroup, but it doesn't show up right away. What's wrong?

MT-NW Manual: Frequently Asked Questions
First, you have to understand how MT-NewsWatcher works with the server when opening newsgroups. The subject window does not show a 'live' view of a newsgroup; it displays a snapshot of the articles on the server when the group was opened. So when you post a new article, it won't show up in the subject window until you reopen the group.

Can I cross-post an important message to other mailing lists and/or other people?

Arooooo! Frequently Asked Questions
If you cross-post a message and then a recipient of that message uses the "Reply to All" function in his or her e-mail software, that response will be sent to Arooooo! Since only subscribers can post to Arooooo!, that message—perhaps many messages if you cross-post to a mailing list—will bounce. Please—don't cross-post. It's perfectly okay to send a message to Arooooo! and to other mailing lists or individuals, but do so as separate posts, not as a cross-posted message.
