Apparently setting the various queue thresholds won't keep things from going
into the queues and sitting there for some time (I forget if this is tied to
the cron jobs or what).

The autopost setting for the various user groups seems to be the way to go.
You can either autopost to the front page, or to the section the message is
heading for. I'm still having trouble posting messages to any section other
than "Featured Stories", but that is another problem (I think).

Thanks.
