I dont think the problems are J's, because other people, including me,
reported a failure to see AG's posts under certain circumstances. There
was definitely a problem with posts showing up. "Test for J. 2/3" didnt
show up in Google Groups either, so there is something the matter with
either AG's news reader or his ISP that was used to send that message.
Since AG has other alternatives, I'd say that the problem was probably
solved.

Well, I hope I could have fixed it up. Now, I am going to read the whole
rules and regulations about the newsgroup. I didn?t know tests were not
permited. Anyway, not knowing the law doesn?t allow us not to follow it.
Thanks,

I think the intent of that (newsgroup and in the Charter) is for newbies who
just post a "test" message instead of an intro. In this case, it would have
been (I think) possibly not helpful to all migrate over to alt.test, because
we're all using different ISP's and newservers from different countries trying
to make sure all of us see your posts here.
All we'd be proving on alt.test is that we can see your posts over there. (I
could be wrong).
Anyhow I can see your post,
J
