for sending options i have "newsgroups" and "CC". i got crossposting to work
once before but only once fefore, not anytime after that. when i did i was
typing the additional newsgroups into the "CC" option like in an email with
a ";" as a seperator. the cross posting working once for me like i said, but
everyother time it just gave me an issue saying that the newsgroup names
that i was trying to post to were invalid. all of them except for the main
one that i was posting to. just the cross posting ones were being marked as
invalid.
