Port 119 Error - Newsgroups

I am attempting to post a reply to a newsgroup with Bellsouth.net. I have
contacted Bellsouth Tech Support and my settings are correct. They say that
they use port 119 for newsgroup mail and the newsgroup is not accepting from
that port. I deleted the Bellsouth newsgroup account and re-installed and
re-subcribed to 3 different newsgroups and got the same error 0x800CCCA9 from
all three attempts - tried it different times. This is the error message.
Help!

Windows Mail could not post your message. Subject 'Re: Oxidation problem',
Account: 'newsgroups.bellsouth.net', Server: 'newsgroups.bellsouth.net',
Protocol: NNTP, Server Response: '441 Posting Failed (Rejected by POST
filter)', Port: 119, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 441, Error Number:
0x800CCCA9
