OT, Another thing I'd like to figure out how to do is cancel posts...
Using OE, I highlight the message and go to "Message", and click
"Cancel message". Even though I get a message saying the
cancellation's been sent, nothing ever happens.

Some news services don't honor cancel requests and for those that do, it
may take a while for the cancelation to take effect. It's also possible
that your post is still cached locally and won't disappear until you
refresh headers or some such.
