Yeah, but new messages posted from sources other than Mactopia *are* being
replicated via NNTP, so those folks using Google Groups, etc. are getting
replies. It's just the poor folks posting directly through the Mactopia web
interface who aren't getting responses but neither are they getting the
posts to other groups either.

IOW, the people who need the explanation aren't getting it & those who are
getting it don't need it Just trying to save you some keystrokes

Gotcha! Let's hope MS gets it act together and fixes the problem.

Diane

This has gone beyond pathetic, but we're powerless on this end

It had occurred to me to put an announcement like yours in the Forum itself,
but I doubt anyone would even see it... I may still give it a try.

BTW - Happy New Year
