Someone reposted this in another NG… don’t object! Just wish they
would tell me how to post to other groups as well…

headers (the 5 lines above the post). The second one, "newsgroups",
controls where your message gets posted. Notice how they appear, eg.
alt.arts.poetry.comments,rec.arts.poems
(name or group written in full in lower case, just a comma (no spaces)
between groups).
If you're making a new post, the default there will be the group you're
posting from; so you have to write in the other groups there yourself.
You can write in up to 5 groups and I think (though I haven't tested it)
they all have to be groups NovaBBS carries. Otherwise, the message won't
post and you'll get a warning; just edit the line and try posting again,
and it should work.

As an added note, if you post to one group, then post to another group
the same content, it will not work. You will see the second post on this
site (novabbs), but it will not propagate across Usenet.
It's important to post to both groups at the same time, using the method
described by George above.
I think it's been working for me.

Okay, interesting facts worth remembering.
So let me see if I get all this:
It's okay to legitimately crosspost, but not to double post?
If you look on the very top of the page, in the grey area, it says "mail files register ect", there is also one that says groups, click on that
and it will show you all the groups supported by this site. hope that
helps

What happens if you make the same post separately into another group,
within a specific period of time, it will appear here just fine, but it
will not travel to the rest of Usenet.
This is because my backend Usenet server, i2pn2.org, will block it.
An example is here:
From: <someone in aapc>
Newsgroups: rec.arts.poems
Subject: <the subject>
Date: Sat, 19 Oct 2024 19:03:01 +0000
The above post goes fine into rec.arts.poems, but the same article was attempted to be posted into aapc, and it failed. From my logs:
MULTIPOST DETECTED:
Sender: <same person in aapc>
Subject: <the same subject>
Duplicates: <the message-id of the article above>
REJECTING: <8c44bdd6ade637c758587e5afda27388@www.novabbs.com>
The article will appear on novabbs, but it won't go anywhere else.

That would've been me. I've been multiposting all my PPB: threads to
aapc and RAP for years -- first to keep the trolls on RAP off the
threads on aapc (when RAP was infested) and later to keep the trolls on
aapc off the threads on RAP (when their trolls moved into aapc). I never posted the same pose enough to come near the spam threshold, but I can understand why (because of the threshold) you want to discourage multiposting.
Since most of the trolls seem to have left us when google groups stopped supporting usenet, it looks safe to start crossposting again. So I'll do
that with today's PPB post.
Thanks as always for your information.
