perpetual posting errors

When is the posting error going to be cured? I would guess that 80% of evrey
post I write produces an error. I've no idea whether they eventually are
posted, duplicated, or what. If MS can't sort this what hope is there for
Vista?

It is the web-based newsreader.

I'm replying from the web interface and will see what the error says, if
there is one.

Don't use the web interface. It's lousy. Use a newsreader. XP comes
with Outlook Express and Vista has Web Mail.

It's easy to set up for newsgroup access.

Hi,

Stop using the web-based interface (CDO), start using a newsreader.
Instructions on using Outlook Exress can be found here:
http://rickrogers.org/setupoe.htm, the same ones can be used for Windows
Mail in Vista.

Guess I should update that page to include this.

OK I can get there another way. Are you suggesting Microsoft can't be
bothered to fix it?

Colin

I posted with the web interface and got no errors (you can see my message
here), so the problem is not the web interface.

What is the exact error message you are getting?

There's actually 2 problems:-

1. I may have to wait 10 or 15 minutes for the Reply box to open despite
being on broadband with nothing else running on the internet

2. "For the 1 I was complaining about I'll have to send a reply or two to
reproduce the error (because I didn't write it down); but its something like
"Error Your reply could not be posted, please try again later". Once I have
the exact wording I'll give it to you - assuming my reply gets through, of
course!
