Posted something in giganews.general and another GigaNews user claims that
microsoft.public.win98.general.discussion is up to date on his machine.
Then I posted a test message to that group and it didn't show up. Now I'm
crossposting another test post. Something is rotten in Denmark.

Posted something in giganews.general and another GigaNews user claims
that microsoft.public.win98.gen_discussion is up to date on his
machine. Then I posted a test message to that group and it didn't show
up. Now I'm crossposting another test post. Something is rotten in
Denmark.
I found the problem. I was always subscribed to
microsoft.public.win98.general.discussion, NOT
microsoft.public.win98.gen_discussion
I do have aloe.org and teranews and notice that they're both up to date but
lack the retention that giganews has.
Anyway microsoft.public.win98.gen_discussion is working fine on GigaNews. I
was just using "general." instead of "gen_" !
