But the posted article is still sitting in the "in.coming" folder.  How
do I get it to appear in the newsgroup spool?  If I try to read the
group, it shows no articles.

Normally, how does an article leave the "in.coming" folder and end up
in the local news spool?

I'll follow these suggestions.  Thank you.

But first, I need to get the article out of "in.coming".
