Hi all,
PC related problem here, not LR one (for a change!) I can;t respond to
posts anymore. I do the "reply to post" thing and then log in etc etc
but the page I get has no Group or Subject in the boxes. It also has
the message " Unable to retrieve message slrnvketc etc etc.

Any ideas.

Do not be offended if I don;t reply!

Help

From the headers it looks like he is posting through the google groups
webpages.

Duh! Expect an answer do you?

Anyhow, I think he uses Google Groups, not a newsreader or email programme.

Duh! well if he can post the question surely he can answer a question whether it's as a reply or
as a new post

bit like asking 'my land rover won't go any ideas' type of question

He said he can't respond to posts, not that he can't read them.

My guess too, but I didn't presume.

Not at all. If something's working OK one day and not the next, it's fair
to ask why this is so, whether it's your web browser or your vehicle of
choice. Also (and I'm sure Dave is aware of this), it's considered bad
netiquette to answer a post by starting a new thread as you suggest. If
that's his only alternative, I'm not surprised he asked what was wrong.

Lighten up, guys.
