Did you use tabs? They do not get preserved indefinitely, so they are
bad for posting.
I didn't consciously use tabs, actually I would rather avoid them.
That said, my posting looks correctly indented in my "sent" folder and
also in the copy received from my newsserver. What could also have an
influence is line endings. I'm using Thunderbird on win32 here, acting
as news client to comp.lang.python. Or maybe it's your software (or
maybe some software in between) that fails to preserve formatting.

More likely, you failed to tell Thunderbird to send it as text. Html
messages will read differently on html aware readers than on the
standard text readers. They also take maybe triple the space and bandwidth.
In thunderbird 3.1.19
In Edit->Preferences, Composition->general Configure Text Format
Behavior -> SendOptions In that dialog, under Text Format, choose
Convert the message to plain text. Then in the tab called "Plain text
domains", add python.org
