Hi

I've tried posting in the NG's but they don't appear although they have been
sent and I get no errors.
I've tried a test group also. I can see the other posts in NG's but
unfortunately not mine.

Could somebody send a new post entitled "Posts not showing up" and start a
new thread for me to read and hopefully sort out my dilema?

TIA

Shows up just fine here. What are you using for a newsgroup client?

I'm using Microsoft Outlook Express v6, and I've just noticed that I can see
my posts on this server "msnnews.microsoft.com" but not if I post on
"news.tiscali.co.uk"?

Don't use "news.tiscali.co.uk".
 
I have msnews also, but it doesn't have NG's like "DIY,gardening, local
regions etc etc.
I've just deleted the tiscali account and re added it, but still my posts
are not seen although I can read other and reply without error message but
still I cant see them? It must be some setting I've overlooked I suppose, as
it has worked for quite some time now without any problem untill now.
Does any know what may have caused this or how to rectify the problem?

You haven't commented "vijusha"!
 
Thanks Bruce

I added (aloe.org) (news.edisontel.com) and (text.news.cambrium.nl) but no
posting was allowed
even though (aloe.org) said you could!

How come there are visible posts on them servers if no posting is allowed! I
don't get it.
 
vijusha,
Tiscali news and email servers, are known to have chronic outages and problems.
It might be time to get a different Newsgroup service.

There are few "free" ones out there. And most of them usually do not carry
"alt.binaries.***" newsgroups. If you desire the binary newsgroups, you might
need to subscribe to a pay service, like GIGANews.

For a free non binary news service, consider www.motzarella.org . They may not
carry all the newsgroups that you are interested in. You will need to register
with them with a valid email address, so that you can see all the newsgroups
that they offer, and have the ability to post to those newsgroups. Which is why
they can offer their service for free at this time. Which then require you to
subscribe to a
pay service.

For Microsoft specic news groups, add news://msnews.microsoft.com to you news
reader application/client.

Because it's isn't working. Try reading a post completely for a change or go
back to arguing with Unknown. PLONK!
 
Ok, I'll re-iterate

I use OE6 and have two NG accounts, 1 "msnews.microsoft.com" and 2
"news.tiscali.co.uk" both have been working for some time now.
But posts to the tiscali NG account are not visible although they send
without an error and do not get returned. I thought a setting somewhere must
have been altered, but it's not the case as far as I can see.

I've just added 3 more NG's from Bruce's link, and the "aloe.org" account
stated posting allowed, but I get a message on all 3 accounts that posting
not allowed when posting in their relative test groups.

Is anyone on, or can someone add "news.tiscali.co.uk" to their mail program
and let me know if indeed Tiscali NG's are down?
