I stress seems cause I thought this a few times before

But..I would like to know wether anyone could confirm this for his/her forums or am I the only one having this problem ?

I was having the exact same problem. Posts were coming into the forums fine but no post were being exported to usenet unless I manually went to the gateway myself. After a lot of frustration I deleted the usenet schedued tasks (all five of them) from the forums adminCP and decided to try one last idea. I decided to set REAL cronjobs to run the gateway instead of using vB's built in functionality. I set the cronjob to run 'http://www.myforums.com/forums/gateway.php' and now it works perfectly. For anyone else who is recieving posts but none of your post are being sent to usenet, maybe this will work for you as well?

Now that it works... Lierduh, this is a great hack. For me and my forums, this is the most useful vb mod on this site. Thanks for all of your work on it and I hope you keep updating this thing!
