It should also immediately appear in 
/var/spool/news/name/of/local/newsgroup . If this doesn't work, we
have to find out what's going wrong. It is possible that the fork()
in nntpd.c::dopost() is failing for some reason, but in that case,
I think you should see an error message.

In contrast to the 1.x versions, Leafnode 2.x does not need a connection
to the upstream server to sort articles into the spool.
