(Edit Tech), New York Lines: 16 Does anyone have any nice hacks to Pnews to check for the legality of the newsgroup(s) to which the poster wants to post his/her article? I'm thinking about writing a quick hack to do this myself, since I've been caught by mistakenly posting an article to a non-existent group through a typo, but I wanted to check to see if anyone has already done this before I reinvent the wheel.
