Can't post via OE

Well I'll be a SOB! It seems to have worked, but it worked in a strange
manner?

It wouldn't send with my original password, but when I changed the
password in the username/password by one character it went thru?

I think I'll give up computing now, as I have nothing
else--significant--to live for!

Thanks Frank! I think?

Which would lead me to suspect that the original identity had the password
wrong.

If that had been the case, I shouldn't have been able to download any
messages, right? I mean, I was able to receive messages, I just wasn't able
to reply to any of those messages.

I have no idea what was actually wrong. The logs showed that my pw was
"accepted," but that the post were rejected by a filter.

Remember this Mark - Frank does not like Trout !!

Sadly, I'm one of those strange catch and release flyfishers :~^(


If you ask him, he has a stock answer "No"©FJS.

So reply to me direct, for my postal address, to send the Salmon to.

Again, sadly, there ain't no Salmon swimmin' in these NC trout water.

"but when I changed the password in the username/password by one character

I can't see how that should affect it :-))

I kept asking me for my *new* pw each time I opened OE, so I went into news
properties and changed it and it quit askin' and now it works as before?
However, it did take the identity change to get things workin', as I had
trie changin' my pw in the past and nothin' happened.

Anyway, I'm back in the saddle again, and not havin' to use that cumbersome
Thunderbird!


Thanks all!
Mark

Yes. They look very old. Why don't you delete that log
and create a more current one? (Alt-T,O,Ctrl-BackTab,w)

I didn't know they existed, until yesterday, so I will clear them out now.

If you are saying that that *is* your current log
then fix your machine's date. An invalid date might explain
why your post is being rejected. I don't think that that
is the case though because you have already shown us
a recent post with a recent Date: header in it.

No I was tryin' to show that one minute all was workin' fine and the next
all hell broke loose, and I couldn't post.

Did you try Bruce's idea to recreate your Outbox?

Yep, and it did nothing.

That would be another way that a message with an incorrect date
might be sent and then rejected by the server just as if
your machine's date was in fact wrong.

Althought the log showed that my password was "accepted," apparently my main
identity was unexceptable. The new identity is workin' just fine now. The
main identity was related to my best friend of over twelve
years--beausdad--(Beau-re-Guard the Wonder Dog). I hate to think that this
computer knew I was going to have to have her sent to old puppies heaven,
but I should be good for another 12 years, as my new id relates to the
newest member of the family--Bear. He's a giant, rescued, German Shepard
that doesn't know the meaning of "it ain't play time now!" It may have
something to do with the meth lab he was guarding?

Thanks

I'm having the same problem but in different situation!

Since my ISP didn't provide NNTP newsserver, so I use news.readfreenews.net to grab more NGs beside msnews.microsoft.com.
The problem is that, I can't sending NG post through news.readfreenews.net but fine with msnews.microsoft.com, very unfortunately microsoft didn't have the NG I'm refer to (alt.games.microsoft.flight-sim) but have this microsoft.public.simulator. Now forget about microsoft.

The situation is; I post 2 messages to alt.games.microsoft.flight-sim through news.readfreenews.net and I got these error:

*Outlook Express could not post your message. Subject 'Where can I get a freeware Bell 212 for FS9?', Account: 'News.readfreenews.net', Server: News.readfreenews.net', Protocol: NNTP, Server Response: '440 Posting Not Allowed.', Port: 119, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 440, Error Number: 0x800CCCA9.

For Information:
* Post without attachment.
** Post with attachment (a HTML doc.)
Both messages using HTML Format.

I don't have any technical knowledge about errors states on both marked red. It seem both are identical.
Anyone....please explain!. Any website I can refer, just to intense my thought. Thanks.

I would think it's rather obvious:
'440 Posting Not Allowed.'
That server does not allow posting, only reading.

Certainly yes it is! the server does not allow posting.

Now I'm using biggulp.readfreenews.net
