Quoted message said:Hi,
rec.food.veg.cooking (RFVC) is different in that it is a moderated
newsgroup, but you shouldn't have to do anything different
to post to it (being on-topic is essentially all that's needed).
It's moderated so that postings are free from spam and other
meat products. ;-) Seriously - it's a vegetarian newsgroup.
I'm one of the moderators for RFVC, and can't see your post,
but another poster has forwarded your request on, so it should
appear soon ('cos I just approved it!). I saw that post,
and came here to help clarify. Thanks to them.
Quoted message said:Please let me know, by e-mail, how you posted to RFVC.
It's worth noting, that, if we (moderators) reject posts
(perhaps because they are off-topic, and/or accidentally contain
meaty products, or need clarification), then - if your e-mail
address is incorrect in your post - the rejection notification
won't reach you. Please check the e-mail address in your postings.
Hope this helps,
Gedge
Thanks, Gedge
I looked at the from Dee Randall on my original posting to this group and it
shows under my name:
"Posted via Supernews, http://www.supernews.com"
I belong to the alt.bread. recipes and it shows the same thing.
I belong to rec.food.baking and it shows the same thing.
I belong to rec.food. equipment and it shows the same thing.
I always post to newsgroups in plain text.
I don't believe I've ever had a posting show up on the veg. group. I just
now sent this to the veg group in plain text
"I'm trying to post to this group. This is a trial email. My text is set to
plain. Dee" The subject is "trying to post to rec.food.veg.cooking"
When I try to send it, this is the message I get.
Outlook Express could not post your message. Subject 'trying to post to
rec.food.veg.cooking', Account: 'news.shentel.net', Server:
'news.shentel.net', Protocol: NNTP, Server Response: '441 'From' header not

This happens with no other newsgroup that I've tried to post to -- that I
recall. I've subscribed briefly to many newsgroups. I just can't figure it
out. What do you think.
