This seems like such a simple problem but I am having trouble posting to
linux.debian.user. and googling hasn't helped me figure out why. I
understood linux.debian.user to be a non-moderated list where anyone can
post. However all the messages I have sent never appear.
I am using Thunderbird. I subscribed to eu.usenet-news.net
http://usenet-news.net/index1.php?url=faq
by buying a block quota and use this to read newsgroups. I previously
thought it was because my ISP (Newnet) might be blocking it (their newsgroup
service was poor) and I left it alone for a while, but I have recently moved
to using Bethere as my ISP (part of O2) and still no joy. I can post to
news.grc.com and terabyteunlimited.com. What simple checks can I have
overlooked in my ignorance? I know Bethere block port 25 so you have to use
their own smtp server but I don't see this as a problem.
Any clues would be greatly appreciated.
