Wow... Thanks a lot. Now it works again........ I wanted to post a 
"thank you message" from inside gnus so I tried to post a test-message 
to a .test-group, so I tried this:

Newsgroups: dk.test
Subject: hello, there
X-Draft-From: ("dk.test" "")
From: test-user-full-name <test_mac@Apple.local>
Date: Fri, 26 May 2006 21:25:34 +0200
Message-ID: <m1d5e037wx.fsf@Apple.local>
User-Agent: Gnus/5.11 (Gnus v5.11) Emacs/22.0.50 (darwin)
Cancel-Lock: sha1:6PW6NG/bR9amqbaZ8D8EqpUHOn4=

But the problem is:

Couldn't send message via news: 441 Post rejected, formatting error: 
Message-ID: header contains invalid domain name part.
Auto-saving...

What does it mean by that?


Best regards / Med venlig hilsen
