Thank you.
I did sort of expect it to be as simple as that.

I was caught similarly by using Reply  instead  of  Follow-up,  but  I
eventually  worked  that one out. Then I had the timezone set wrongly,
so I was having messages rejected for being dated  in  the  future.  I
sent a covering note to NNTP explaining these are tomorrow's messages
because I will be too busy to send any then, but he rejected that too.
Some servers are just so damn /picky/ !

That's a pity. Entries in the list don't have a lot of value when the
colunm is too narrow to read them
