The following applies only if you use NETSCAPE NAVIGATOR MAIL (does AOL
use NETSCAPE?).  When you click the To Mail, go to view and check, Show
all.  Now you will see, Reply To, Mail To, CC:, Blind CC:, File CC:,
Newsgroups, Followup To:, Subject and Attachment. On the Newsgroups
write the name of the group as comp.sys.ibm.as400.misc and compose your
message as usual and click send.  You can use this method to
simulatneously send the message to midrange-l and the newsgroup.  Hope
this helps.
