[update]
Lucy.. In the time between I have examined Ozum functions closely.
I have reached the conclusion Ozum requires more "config tweaking"
with each post for each Group than is possible for a newbie to grasp,
quickly.
OTOH.. Agent "out of the box" posts quite easily for the new player,
and is fully supported within Usenet forums.
I have therefore abandoned any further work with Ozum.
Of course, I do believe it has potential as a "mass postings tool"
and therefore would recommend it for "power users".
I shall use it myself from time to time, where appropriate.
Good luck with your efforts... and stay safe.
