Hi Harold, That's a new one to me. Can you tell where this message is originating? I think about all you can do at this point is "try, try again". I thought we had everything straightened out and ready to go, but apparently we still have "issues". There are several messages currently awaiting posting, but I don't see one from you. My apologies for screwin' this up - we'll get it fixed as soon as we can (if we can!). Best, Frank

Shouldn't be. Herbert posted a concern about all the nntp servers getting the new moderation address. That isn't the way it works... or not the way *I* understand it works. The servers should be sending any post to a moderated group to... replace dots in group name with underscores... comp_lang_asm_x86(a)moderators.isc.org This "isc.org", if you look 'em up, are the folks who wrote/maintain "INN", the nntp server almost everyone uses. They, in turn, mail your message to... well, Nathan, right now... clax-submit(a)inspiretomorrow.net AFAIK, messages are arriving there okay... but not from your ISP. The gist of the "if you're having trouble posting" message (we used to see, and will again, hopefully) is to mail your post to one or both of those addresses. In "most cases" this "shouldn't be necessary"... but at one time I had to cc messages to Chuck's "clax-submit at crayne.org" to get 'em posted. If the message doesn't get from the nntp server to isc.org and from there to the submission address, there's nothing the moderator can do about it, of course. So sending (or cc'ing... we'll probably double-post, we're so screwed up at the moment... won't hurt... we'll get it sorted out eventually) to the clax-submit(a)inspiretomorrow.net address is the most "direct" way. However, we *are* getting messages that are "posted as usual" as far as that address in "most cases". The current bottleneck is getting them re-posted with a moderator approval. We're "working on it", but to be honest, we're flailing around right now. Soon, I hope... Thanks for the info! Best, Frank

I guess I'll just mail my posts manually.. -- harold
