Cross-posting help

I don't understand how to cross-post. I posted a thread the other day in
three different group and just found a thread that said about cross-posting
however I don't know how to find the full USENET designation in order to post
in multiple groups.

Thanks

Crossposting is done by listing more than one group in the Newsgroup entry of
your message when you post it. Just separate them with commas. This is much
preferable to Multi-Posting where you post duplicate messages one after the
other to different groups.

*Excessive* crossposting is also discouraged however which is listing a high
number of groups. Generally three or four groups is the maximum you should use.
