Unable to post

Dec 23, 2004 6 Replies

Hi all, PC related problem here, not LR one (for a change!) I can;t respond to posts anymore. I do the "reply to post" thing and then log in etc etc but the page I get has no Group or Subject in the boxes. It also has the message " Unable to retrieve message slrnvketc etc etc.



Any ideas.



Do not be offended if I don;t reply!

So Dave Reynolds was, like

What program are you using?

Duh! Expect an answer do you?

Anyhow, I think he uses Google Groups, not a newsreader or email programme.

Huw

From the headers it looks like he is posting through the google groups webpages.

Duh! well if he can post the question surely he can answer a question whether it's as a reply or as a new post

bit like asking 'my land rover won't go any ideas' type of question

So Huw was, like

He said he can't respond to posts, not that he can't read them.

My guess too, but I didn't presume.

So Andy.Smalley was, like

Not at all. If something's working OK one day and not the next, it's fair to ask why this is so, whether it's your web browser or your vehicle of choice. Also (and I'm sure Dave is aware of this), it's considered bad netiquette to answer a post by starting a new thread as you suggest. If that's his only alternative, I'm not surprised he asked what was wrong.

Lighten up, guys.
