[[If a message MUST be posted to multiple groups, post a single message
and
select all the groups (or type their names manually, separated by commas)
in
which you want it to be seen. This is called Crossposting and when used
properly it is *GOOD*.
This question was posted individually to multiple groups.
This is called Multiposting and it's *BAD*.
Replies made in one group will not be visible in the other groups, which
may cause multiple people to respond to a question with the same answer
because they didn't know someone else had already done it.
This is a waste of time. ]]
With Outlook Express, which you're using...
To send your message to multiple newsgroups on the same news server, in
the
New Message dialog box, click the icon next to Newsgroups. In the Pick
Newsgroups dialog box, click one or more newsgroups from the list (hold
down
the CTRL key to select multiple newsgroups), and then click Add. You can
choose from all newsgroups or only those you subscribe to by clicking Show
only subscribed newsgroups.
You can send a given message to more than one newsgroup at a time only if
all the newsgroups are on the same news server. To post a message to
newsgroups on other news servers, create a separate message for each news
server.

InI use OE as a newsreader. I often navigate to Tools > Rules > News. I'd
love to have a button on the toolbar to take me there. There is no such
pre-programmed button available. Could one be made by macro or vbs?

Thanks Wes, for the linlk and the instructions on how to crosspost. I
tried it before, but it got hung up. I'm saving your instructions so I
can try it again one day.
