By your NNTP posting headers, you are using this news client:

| X-Newsreader: Microsoft CDO for Windows 2000

That is just some proprietary Microsfot "HTTP-to-NNTP" thingy. Very klutzy,
and unreliable, when compared with using a proper NNTP client. I would join
with others in recommending to ditch the HTTP client (web client, which is
just a web browser), and use a proper NNTP client instead.

For Windows XP, and earlier: MS Outlook Express (included with MS Internet
Explorer, through 6).

For Windows Vista: Windows Mail (included with Vista in lieu of MSOE).

For both Windows Vista, and Windows XP (but not earlier than XP): Windows
Live Mail (not included with any OS; but available as a download from the
Windows Live site).

Please respond direct to "(e-mail address removed)" <DoNotSPAM> if you can
assist in resolution to this problem.

Just this once; but, be advised: NNTP etiquette requires a poster of an
article to return to the newsgroup posted to in order to read responses.
Requesting an email response of NNTP posters is considered rude.

Makes no difference. The "Web-to-News" feature of the Microsoft Communities
is extremely flaky, and unreliable.

Thank you and back to the NNTP using Windows Mail
