I have used OE to post messages for months. Now, they are
not showing up. If I post in Community Newsgroups, then
my message will show up in OE. Are there any settings I
might have changed by accident? I even gave System
Restore a shot, but that didn't help.
Thanks.

Did you block port 119 with your firewall? That's about the only difference
I can think of between using a newsreader and the web interface. Port
119 is for NNTP traffic (news servers) and the browser uses port 80.

Did you consult with Cox, the service provider of the news server you use?
