Probably you have to add localhost to /etc/news/hosts.nntp
And I suggest using the get-news script, it does everything for you.
It has a little bug which causes outgoing positings to be dropped.
Here's the patch: [I should file a bug report on this]

For outgoing postings to work as desired, edit your /etc/news/newsfeeds.
It should contain an entry similar to:
news.yourprovider.domain\
:*,!junk,!control/!local\
:Tf,Wnm:news.yourprovider.domain
(Change news.yourprovider.domain to the name of newsserver of your provider)
Hope this helps,
