That's ok, Matt. :)

  You can change the synchronization settings in OutLook Express so that it
just downloads the groups headers and not the body of the post (I do this
for the duke3d.binaries newsgroup). Just right-click on the newsgroup to
change the settings.

Also, when you post a message, you'll see it appear briefly in your Outbox
(you'll see a "(1)" next to Outbox). After a moment it will disappear. That
means it's been sent. You can confirm it by left-clicking once on the Sent
Items folder.
