   If you want to send a post to both CLVB and CLBV, then cross-post, don't   
   multi-post.   
      
   Multi-post: Two separate posts are sent, each addressed to a single newsgroup,   
   but containing identical text.   
      
   Cross-post: A single post is sent, with two newsgroups listed in the address   
   field, separated by a comma, similar to sending an email to two people at once.   
      
   If you cross-post, then replies made in one newsgroup will also appear in the   
   other group, avoiding a lot of confusion, repetition, and annoyance. Also in   
   many newsreaders, if I read the post in one group, it is automatically marked   
   as   
   read in the other group as well.
