This was answered in another newsgroup.

If you must post identical messages in more than one newsgroup please
crosspost, i.e. please place all of the newsgroups in the Newsgroup
field of one message, separated by commas. That way when someone
reads the message in one newsgroup it will be marked as read in all
of them. In addition, an answer posted in one newsgroup will
generally show up in all of them.

This is usually not necessary since most of those who answer posts
read more than one newsgroup.

Thanks for the lesson! However, I only discovered this (more
appropriate) OE6 newsgroup *after* I had posted my message to the
other group. As I don't have the ability to delete posts from the
server, I couldn't remove the other post.

No problem.
