OK, I just posted a message (reply, actually) in .loc.au and it turned up in
.org.au - for loc.au it was message no. 2811 and org.au it was 759, and I
swear I haven't told anything to post to both groups, just loc.au - explain
this one please! ;-)
I have Outlook Express set up to only post to the newsgroup it finds the
message in, if there is something else I should set to make it not send
copies to other newsgroups, I would appreciate any info that anyone has on
how to turn that particular 'feature' off!
FYI, it turned up within seconds of being posted as far as I could tell.
Are you still sure you haven't got anything automatic set up?
Cheers ...
