Post a New Usenet Article
Use one of these commands to post a new Usenet article, which will open the :
·      Tool Bar:     Post (P) ·      Keyboard: Press "P" ·      Pop up menus in the Newsgroup or Thread panes - "Post"

q    When you use "P" or the toolbar button, Gravity will create an article for posting to the currently open newsgroup.

q    If you want to post to another group, or crosspost to multiple groups, first select the group(s) in the group pane, then use the Post command in the right click popup menu. You can also add or remove groups later from the compose window.
Follow-up a Usenet Article

·      Tool Bar:     Follow Up (F) ·      Keyboard: Press "F" ·      Popup right click menus in the Article and Thread panes - "Follow up"

Spell Check  (Compose Window)
  The spell checker is enabled by default to check spelling automatically before sending (Tools - Global Options - Spelling). You can also run the spell checker any time manually with the toolbar button or menu command.

Send  (Compose Window)
  Use the "Send" button or the menu File - Send. The spell checker runs (unless you disabled the automatic spell check) and the message is sent to the Outbox.
Ø    Gravity polls the outbox at regular intervals and will post/send the message automatically. You do not have to do anything unless there is a sending error.

Outbox
(Main toolbar) The Outbox shows the sent and unsent articles and sending errors, if any. You can also try to resend the article. You can also open the outbox from the menu View - Other Windows - Outbox.
You can also access the Outbox from the Outbox Toolbar, which shows the number of articles waiting to be sent and posting errors, if any. Enable or disable the Outbox Toolbar with View - Toolbars - Outbox Bar.
