What happened to my post ?

[JB]

Earlier today, I submitted a detailed question regarding Outlook 2007 issues.

When I clicked on Post, a page came up saying something like " The server is
too busy to display this page "

Now I can't find any trace of the question I posted - I spent valuable time
preparing my post and now it's disappeared without trace. What's occurring ?

Heh, it looks as if you've learned a valuable lesson too, much more valuable
than the allegedly valuable time you spent preparing your post. Click on
this link news://msnews.microsoft.com and learn to use whatever program pops
up to read and post in news groups. Learn to save copies of valuable posts
in drafts.

If you are using XP it will probably be Outlook Express. If using Vista
Windows Mail. If you have Windows Live Mail installed that will do it.

Tchau,

Earle

Hey Earle - Thanks for the advice. It wasn't really what I was looking for,
though .... I just wanted to flag a possible reliability problem to the
administrators of this site.

Set up your newsreader and stop posting on that awful Web interface. You will be so
much better off.

See Earle's advice for the newsreader.

BTW. For Outlook questions you can post to one of the following Outlook newsgroups
after you set up your newsreader


news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.outlook
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.outlook.General
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.outlook.configuration

There isn't exactly a site administrator for the web interface you are using
to access the newsgroups. However, what are you trying to report? I'm can
pass any issues along.
