Hi,

i'm using Microsoft Entourage 2008 (Version 12.0.0 (071130)) and have a little problem with postings articles into the usenet.
Sometimes i want to post an article in two or three groups.
But i get an error 441: "Followup-To: is required for ... [i.e newsgrouos, i want to post in]"

But HOW and WHERE can i apply such a follow-up? I am too stupid to find it!
How can isay Entourage, in which NG i want the answers to be directed?

TIA for Your answers! (And sorry for my bad English)

Max

Which is something your server is doing, which I'd argue is overbearing.

Entourage is not capable of doing this on a per-message basis, you'd have to
edit the header on the account level.

You need to update to 12.0.1.

New installer for 12.0.1

It's best to post in one newsgroup. This way when someone replies they might
not know that it has already been answered in another newsgroup. People that
help out on the newsgroups are busy enough answering questions, but to
answer a question that has already been answered is a waste of their time.

I only post in multiple newsgroup when I do an announcement. Never for
asking a question.
