Hi,

I don't understand why fetchnews won't post any queued message when run 
from cron...

Here's what I get from cron :

cron: /usr/local/sbin/fetchnews -P -vvvv
leafnode 1.9.33.rel: verbosity level is 4
Trying to connect to news.brutele.be:nntp ... connected.
Using STAT <message-ID> command on this server.
Disconnected from news.brutele.be.

Here's what I get from command line, su-ed to "news" user :

news at Pilaf:/$ /usr/local/sbin/fetchnews -P -vvvv
leafnode 1.9.33.rel: verbosity level is 4
Trying to connect to news.brutele.be:nntp ... connected.
Using STAT <message-ID> command on this server.
Posting 21770-1131708258-1...
  - OK
news.brutele.be: 1 articles posted
Disconnected from news.brutele.be.

What am I doing wrong ?

Thanks

PS : running fetchnews from root's crontab won't help
PPS : new articles are correctly fetched, only posting doesn't work
