Check the Site Addressing and make sure your SMTP domain name is
orrect. Then check the server's NNTP protocol. Display the property
page and then the "Newsfeed" tab. At the bottom will be your server's
FQDN.
If none of that is wrong, check the E-Mail tab on one of the mailboxes
that's sending messages to the newsgroup. Is the primary SMTP proxy
correct?
Of course, an example of the offending article's header would be
helpful! Especially the "From:" header.
