Let me have another try

[Henry Killer]

I can't send message to this section with Mozilla Thunderbird. Let me try it
with OE.

I am replying from news.microsoft.com instead of msnews.microsoft.com
from OE.

This reply is from Mozilla using account news.microsoft.com
instead of what I always use msnews.microsoft.com
for account, and posting to the programming newsgroup.
Obviously I did not get the error

In fact I'm using Mozilla Thunderbird to access news.microsoft.com.
Every time I try to send a message (ie, post) to programming section, it
tolds me "A news(NNTP) error occurred: You are not allowed to post to
microsoft.public.excel.programming". But when post to newusers section,
everything is fine. Any idea about this?

you reported with Mozilla Firebird.

Don't know what version of Mozilla I have, but this is what
I see from Help, About
Mozilla 1.4
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624

Posted into excel.newusers that he could not post from Mozilla Firebird
into programming and asked if it was read only. The thread in newsuser's is...
