trying to subscribe to the msnews

How did you post this?

Setting up Outlook Express to access Microsoft newsgroups:

To put it in perspective, when I first found NGs and set up subscriptions
I sent a test message or two to ensure I had completed the process
successfully.

You have been subscribing too long to remember.... (violins somewhere)...

And you're guessing. So, by your own omission and assuming the OP did
the same, are you suggesting we lambaste the OP for puking a test post
in a non-test group?

What the heck is a test group?

E.g.:

news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.test.here

There are dozens all over the Usenet.
