Thank you for the tip, but there is still some confusion in my head. For
example this very moment I have sent 3 posts to alt.test in reply to allready
posted messages there. Right afterwards, I have typed ctlinnd feedinfo silfeed
and the output looks like this:
silfeed:        file open fd=16, in mem 0
        Channel created Feb  7 18:50, last active Feb  7 18:50

Obviously the messages never arrived in the feed, neither on disk, nor in
memory, but the news log states explicitly:
dialog innd: localhost:18 closed seconds 0 accepted 1 refused 0 rejected 0
duplicate 0 accepted size 13624 duplicate size 0
Feb  8 09:25:07 dialog nnrpd[2205]: 62.116.87.2 post ok
<a40211$24t$1 at dialog.matrixware.at>

innd: localhost:18 closed seconds 0 accepted 1 refused 0 rejected 0 duplicate
0 accepted size 968 duplicate size 0
Feb  8 09:25:19 dialog nnrpd[2207]: 62.116.87.2 post ok
<a4021f$24v$1 at dialog.matrixware.at>

and so on.

could it be, that the maschines name is confusing INN? The machine is also
called www.dialog-on.at, do I have to set the name of the INN to
dialog.matrixware.at ?

In all honesty, I am a bit lost ;)

Thank you once more, all of you.
