Author wrong newsgroup

Hello,

I'm trying to send (reply) messages to the dbase.programming newsgroup
on the news.dbasetalk.com server, but they end up in the news group with
the same name on the news.dbase.com server. I'm using Netscape 7.1. Is
this a Netscape problem or do other people have the same problem?

I found exactly the same problem using an earlier version (v7.54) of
Opera. I have since upgraded to Opera 8.51 but I haven't bothered to
check if this still happens as I am quite happy with only subscribing to
one of the programming newsgroups. (I'm a lurker, not an active
programmer. <g> )

Netscape problem, continued in Mozilla.
That's why I was switching to Gravity, which keeps apart the NGs and=20
servers, but has other problems.

Thunderbird is the solution to this problem, as I heard just 2 days ago=20
on a usergroup meeting in Germany.
