Default Posts Not Showing Up In Newsgroups


This is something that has happened recently. If I try to post all I see is
the reply (eg "Re: .......) and not my original post. Don't know why Vista
Mail has started doing this. If anyone has any ideas please let me know and
hopefully I will be able to see them

Cheers.

If Windows Mail is doing this, you've probably added yourself to your own
killfile. To check for this, click on Tools, then Message Rules, then News.
Go down the list, clicking on each item, and look for one that says to
delete messages from your newsgroup return address or even just the part
of your newsgroup return address after the @. While displaying any such
rule for your own messages, click on Remove and approve the removal.
When you reach the end of the list, click OK. Note that if you're using a
fake newsgroup return address, you could have tried to killfile someone
else using the same fake return address, and as a result, set it up to
delete
incoming messages posted by either of you.

Also, a few newsgroup providers assume that you don't need to download
any posts that you made.

Remove the checkmark from the option at tools>options>read tab>get ###
headers.
In each newsgroup go to Tools>Get new Headers.

You now have all messages that are on the server.

Thanks for your replies. I don't have any message rules set up so I don't
think that's the problem. Also I tried removing the check from "Get New
Headers" but that didn't help either. Weird thing is I can see this post but
on some other newsgroups that I post on regularly, my original posts are not
showing up but I do see replies so I guess other people can see them.
Strange???

Cheers.

After unchecking download xxx headers at a time, right click on the NG name
in the folder list and then go to Properties | Local file and then click the
Reset button. Then go back to the NG and hit Refresh and it should then
download all the messages.
