Great!
When I first discovered these newsgroups I was using Google Groups ...
it took a while but evenutally I discovered how to use OE; and
evenutally Thunderbird. After I learned enough about using
"newsreaders" (folks who actually do use newsreaders tend to shudder
when they hear someone call OE a newsreader) I have found that
newsgroups are much faster and easier with the newsreader than the web
interface. [Google Groups still seems to be the best mechanism for
searching archives.]
If your office will be moving to Vista or Windows 7 I'd sugggest you
look into Mozilla's Thunderbird -- OE simply is not avaialable after XP.
As to having trouble with one post and not another .... who knows ... I
notice that Jeff and I are using the same version of OE.
Hope you get the snags in accessing the newsgroups worked out!
