So this is for pulling news.

This is for posting only.

fetchnews to server=127.0.0.1 is pointless - and unless you've set
"no_direct_spool", posted articles appear on the local server
directly. You may need to close and re-open your newsreader, depending
on how much caching it does.

You should probably remove the "server = 127.0.0.1" line from your
configuration.

If you see further problems, reconfigure your syslog.conf to capture
news logging (see README.html or README), have syslogd reload its
configuration and check the log, or use "fetchnews -evvv".
