(Indy) Read messages from a newsgroup and repost it to another newsgroup

I want to use Indy to read messages from a newsgroup and repost it to
another newsgroup, remaining the original tree structure (that is, the
reply-to-message will remain replying to the original message that it is
replied to). What components should I use? Which properties/events/methods
should I concern (for reading news message/posting news message/replying
news message)? Thanks.

The way you would do that is to use GetArticle( to retreive the message.  
Than, use the Send procedure to post it.   To preserve the tree
structure, you have to change the References header to point to message
ID's in the new newsgroup.

HTH.
