MVP Russ Valentine answered you in the print_fax group. Please do not cross
post to multiple (largely irrelevant) groups. This is a waste of bandwidth
and causes those of us trying to help to have to read the same message
multiple times (many of us monitor between 15 and 20 groups) If you /must/
cross-post then three or four groups is sufficient - please do so by
entering the group names in the same message header, separated by commas.
This will allow it to be read in several groups, without it appearing as a
"new" post in each to someone who has already read it in another group.
Thank you

That's a very odd statement!
When I read anything cross-posted, it automatically changes all the
cross-posted ones on the other NGs to 'read'.
I also find it odd for someone devoting 29 lines of wasted bandwidth, just
to complain about the self-same thing (8 of those lines consisting of
egotistical irrelevance.

Some people copy and paste the same message to multiple newsgroups, not
knowing how to properly cross-post in the web interface. (I think you
separate multiple newsgroup names with commas to cross-post in the web
interface.)
I call this bad behavior "multi-posting" to differentiate it from
cross-posting. You see the duplicate message in each newsgroup because
the messages are not linked by the cross-posting mechanism. So you have
to read the same message over and over and if you reply, the poor OP can
only see the reply in that one newsgroup instead of any.
Some people start new threads to reply to messages instead of using
reply. My special term for this bad behavior is "dumb". :-)
Microsoft is working on a new generation of the web interface to try to
reduce these bad behaviors. Until then (and after) we can encourage
folks to learn how to use Outlook Express to participate in newsgroups.
