I post and I post, but I never see any of my messages on the
newsgroups. What is going on?

You may be posting your messages to a server other than CodeGear's
server which is newsgroups.borland.com. Messages to the newsgroups
only actually reach them if posted on CodeGear's own server.
Check the configuration page for details on how to access the CodeGear
server.

CodeGear runs these CodeGear newsgroups on CodeGear hardware. Many
other servers (such as deja.com and groups.google.com) mirror what's
posted here, and will also show the messages you post to them.
However, CodeGear does not accept those messages for relay to the
central CodeGear newsgroup server. The vast majority of newsgroup
users do not see messages posted to mirrored servers, and TeamB
members or CodeGear personnel do not see them. This is why posts to
mirrored servers may get no answer, or no satisfactory answer.
So, if you are not accessing this newsgroup through the CodeGear
server, consider it read-only.

The reason for this policy is that the newsgroups are monitored. Off-
topic messages, oversize attachments, spam, etc. are very quickly
canceled. This helps the newsgroups maintain a coherence that is not
generally achieved on Usenet. Obviously, this pruning of incoming
messages can only be done efficiently if they all come into the same
place -- the CodeGear server.
