Come back in a month for your answer, your posting in the future and it's
considered rude.
 
I think u mean a shortcut to CD.

If so, put any non-blank cd in drive, create shortcut,
then go into Prop & change icon 4 shortcut. It'll stay
even with nothing in cd drive, I think.
I did this with CF drive.

How's the future :)

Any advise is my attempt to contribute more than I have received but I can only assure you that it works on my PC. GOOD LUCK.
 
If everyone who posted jumped two months ahead to keep their name at the
top, these newsgroups would simply not work. Frankly, I would hope there was
a way to automatically delete such postings. Intentional or otherwise.

You can filter "future" messages out using the provided filtering
ability of Outlook Express (which you're using). However, most users
who post "future" messages like the one you're referring to, probably
are not aware of it. Besides, not every newsreader will put future
messages at the top - mine (Agent) keeps it at the bottom of the pile.

Regards.
 
In OE; Highlight the message, Shift + Del.
As to where they end up in the pile, in OE, depends on whether you sort by Ascending or
Descending.
 
And, there is the possibility that others will blocksend, essentially
separating the rude poster from future help.
 
Did you people ever stop to think that this user may have not realized that
his system date was wrong? Just tell him that his clock is wrong and ask
that he fix it. Don't just ASSume that he is doing it on purpose. Maybe
you're the ones that should be blocked!!!

By changing the subject line this message may show up as a seperate message
instead of being in the same thread on some news readers. If you want to
get your point accross to the OP, don't change the subject line, say what
you want to say in the body of the message where it belongs.

Every group has it's culture/rules of conduct. If we want to be accepted by
the group, we need to learn and follow the culture - or live with the
reactions of the group members.

I side with the people who have negative reactions to someone who's clock is
set ahead.

You're using: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2800.1158
Why not just click Edit delete, or Ctrl D and get rid of the message.

I delete so many that I've put a delete button on the toolbar.
 
I do that too, often, but I also like to presume that the original poster is
ignorant of the date/time error....
 
How is that, in any way, related to what I said in the post you relpied to?
I made a comment about changing the subject line as that could cause the
post to jump out of the thread. In the post you replied to, I mentioned
nothing about reactions to message that is posted from the future.

But as long as you're on that topic, then how would you like to be hammered
and slammed just because, for some unknown reason, your clock jumped ahead a
day. To you, it looks the same as the time is showing right. Not everyone
checks the date/time on their computer constantly to make sure it's 100%
accurate. Just tell the person to fix their clock and to repost as their
question will probably be ignored.
