Posting a new message.
Each Newsgroup you have subscribed to will have a folder in your Messenger Inbox under the Newsgroup server icon. Open Messenger and highlight the name of the newsgroup where you want your message to be posted.

Posting messages is just like sending e-mail. Click on the 'New Msg' button. A blank mail window will appear with the 'To:' line already filled in with the category 'Newsgroup' and the correct address. Type a Subject. Enter the body of your message, and click 'Send'.

Replying to Newsgroup postings.
On the Netscape Messenger toolbar you will see buttons labelled 'Reply' and 'Reply All'. Use 'Reply' to send an e-mail to the author of the posting only. Use 'Reply All' if you want to respond to the author and post your reply on the Newsgroup.
