   > "cannot write to News/postponed"   
      
   Probably didn't define your "Postpone" directory correctly (or at all) in   
   your ~/.slrnrc file. This directory must exist and be user writeable.   
      
   Here's my ~/.slrnrc (note also browser spawning setups):   
      
     set scorefile "News/Score"   
     set postpone_directory "News/postpone_directory"   
     set non_Xbrowser "lynx -cfg ~/.lynx.cfg '%s' &"   
     set Xbrowser "konqueror '%s' &"   
      
   (IMO slrn is very mum about help if ~/.slrnrc isn't perfect from gitgo)   
      
   HTH...
