From: Dori A Schmetterling on 20 Oct 2009 16:09 I suppose so. I sent messages headed "test" so it was obvious I was not asking a question... but so many people are not 'IT aware'.. You, too, have been in the 'business' too long to remember how it is for most people. (more violins somewhere) DAS To send an e-mail directly replace "spam" with "schmetterling" --- "N.

From: VanguardLH on 20 Oct 2009 18:20 And you're guessing. So, by your own omission and assuming the OP did the same, are you suggesting we lambaste the OP for puking a test post in a non-test group?

From: Whatfor on 20 Oct 2009 21:30 I've tried to find out myself in the past. Usually you get answers from people that are in the newsgroups constantly and have no patience for a newbe. It is really difficult to know what the news groups are since they only reveal one or two words followed by .... I've tried several different key strokes to see if they would open up to readable text, to no avail. So, I ended up subscribing to one, then delete, subscribe to another, delete. Until I finally find something that I want. Needless to say, there may be more that I would like to read, but I too have run out of patience doing the subscribe, delete thing. So, if you have patience someone with compassion will answer your very legitimate question. Sure wish I could be more help to you..
