View Full Version : Weird news posting problem.

When posting to different newsgroups using OE 6.0 everything works fine
except when there's hypertext (URL) in the message. In that case the
message never display in the ng.
Could it be something wrong with the send settings in OE? I'm sending news
in plain text and I'm able to read other messages containing hypertext.
My messages doesn't appear on Google's Web-based newsgroups.

Regards
Thorfinn

Yep, as I said: "everything works fine except when there's hypertext (URL)
in the message"

It could be your nntp server that is filtering out the message (that'd be
weird though)

Try using msnews.microsoft.com as your newsserver for microsoft.public.*
newsgroups and see if the same thing occurs.

It seems to work when using msnews, but now I'm gonna use my regular

Does it show?
