I must be doing something wrong??
I have a post Temp Folders/files dated 29.08.05 @22.36.
I got 3 responses. I have replied to all but only the one to Andrew got
through. The others were rejected by The Postmaster.
I resent to the other two - havent had a rejection but they have not
appeared in my post.
This group came highly recommended by an impeccable source, as I had similar
problems in other forum/discussion groups.
Lets hope this gets through

If you are getting rejections from a postmaster, then perhaps you're
replying with an email instead of to the group (sending to the newsgroup
would not involve any postmaster).

In my OE setup, I've rearranged the toolbar so that the Reply to Group
button is more accessible and not right next to the Reply (by mail) button.
I took the time to do this because of I was accidentally hitting the Reply
button on a regular basis.

Hi Sharon F
We have met before in another life I believe.
Yes you are right I think I must have hit the wrong button.
But not the second and third times.
Well lets see if this gets through to you.
I have the newsgroups email in the window having selected reply to groups -
so here goes.
If it dont work then I will have to post another post.
Thank you for the explanation

Hello Sharon
My replies have at last gone into my post.
Just now, to send this message, I rgt clicked on your reply(in unread
status)
From the menu choice I clicked on Reply to Group(does not seem to matter if
it is a rgt or lft click, or any other Reply Group showing, the same thing
comes up)i.e. I get empty window, unlike the first couple of times I tried
to reply to my post, the message to which I am replying was there so I could
splice my bits between the advice.
Most odd

Yes, why?

PS: I think I understood what you wrote: OE's Reply Group is working okay
now? If yes, that's good news.

If the message you're replying to is not showing up within your
"Reply to Group" you might want to check the following:

In the Outlook Express toolbar, click on Tools and select
Options from the drop down menu. Click on the Send tab. Make
sure there's a check mark in the box next to "Include messages
in reply".

Good luck

Hello Nepatsfan
Many thanks for that - you were spot-on - no tick in that box.
Thank you

Hello Sharon
Yes all is working fine.
Thank you for your help.
Freespirit - I tried to add my meagre help to a problem they had - it was
similar to one that I had.
I must check to see if you cracked it. Seeing your name reminded me. I get
accused of memory loss!

Don't remember the thread but sort of remember "antioch." I get accused of
memory loss too. 😉

Help is always appreciated in the xp newsgroups. A different viewpoint or
even a different way of expressing the same idea can go a long way in
getting a user back on track. :)

The older you get the worse it gets, but to compensate, at my age I meet new
people every day
Look forward to our paths crossing again

P.S I just remembered, I think, Freesprit had a prob with the scanner and
camera wizard.
