Sending messages to the group
 

I find it difficult to reply to the group's messages. My messages to
<mailto:alt.autos.honda@googlegroups.com> are being returned with "fail
permanently" notices. An inquiry at groups-support@google.com yielded,
after two weeks, this message,

"you can't post to a Usenet newsgroup via email
through Google Groups. However, if you create your
own Google Group, you and your group members will
be able to post to it via email."

Because I am a member of alt.autos.honda@googlegroups.com I should be
able to post to Usenet newsgroup. Is this the same as Google Group? I
am confused.

I have to post my messages using the web, but I would prefer to post
using email.
