While I understand your reasons for writing the above, there are sometimes
valid reasons for posting a test message to a non-test group.
I had a strange problem a few months ago where I could post to some of the
groups I subscribe to but not others. I therefore posted some test
messages to see which I could send to and which I could not.
Posting to a test group would not have helped me identify and solve my
problem.
