Problems sending news

Hello!

If I send news unsing for example slrn I get following entry
in the file "/var/spool/news/outgoing/<newsserver>" :
@050100000005000000C70000000000000000@ <slrnavvcng.1gc.yosuke at melchior.nerv>

But I nowhere find the file which includes the data from the post.
There should be also another file in "/var/spool/news/outgoing/" called:
"@050100000005000000C70000000000000000@", shouldn' t it?

The depending variable for outgoing news in inn.conf:
pathoutgoing:           /var/spool/news/outgoing

So why is the message lost? Has someone an idea?

PS: The newsfeed for outgoing posts:
news.cis.dfn.de\
    :*,!junk,!control*\
    :Tf,Wnm:news.cis.dfn.de

I don't have a feed for incoming posts because I use suck
(which is working). For sending the message to the server
I want to use rpost:
rpost news.cis.dfn.de -M -b /var/spool/news/outgoing/news.cis.dfn.de \
  -p /var/spool/news -f /var/lib/news/filter \$\$o=/tmp/FILTERED_MSG \
  \$\$i /tmp/FILTERED_MSG
but I always get an error like:
File "@050100000005000000C70000000000000000@" not found

I have really no idea where the mistake could be. Please help me.

best regards
Martin Neuditschko
