OT MS Community Visibilitythan I do from MS Mail (Vista Ultimate). Is there a setting someplace? Is this common on all newsgroups? Also, the spam posts are missing in Mail, but does that mean that Mail filters spam posts or is it part of a bigger picture. Maybe this happens during some maintenance operations. Bottom line, looks like I cannot rely on MS Mail to view posts. But on the other hand, IE will not let me Login on Vista newsgroups while MS Mail will. Bottom line #2 (lol) I cannot rely on IE to put up posts on other newsgroups. So now let's see if this posts is visible where? Coming from MS Mail this time. Oh, I just now see with IE that some of the spam posts have been removed. Who does that? One last thing, in IE I see that there is a combo box usually at "All Threads" When I open it up I see some other entries that do not produce any posts, like "Suggestions with MS Response" Does / did MS ever respond? Sorry, this all was just bugging me. MS Mail provides spell checking, maybe the new IE8 will too. Is there an Add-on for that? This is my home, here at VB, so don't yell at me for this OT because I am too old and stupid to ferret out other places to vent. Happy Friday! I'm curious to know what's going on if you
figure it out. I assume the program you're using has some kind of spam filter, but I don't know. Why are you using IE, though? You're using a webpage version of the group? Any newsreader should be able to read any usenet group. I use OE5 and have no trouble seeing Vista groups.

I move around a lto from desktop to laptop on several PCs. So sometimes it is just easier to use the IE interface. I have used Outlook Express in he past. Vist Mail seems to work OK. Not sure how to set up filering for newsgroups unless it is an automatic function that I ahve no control of. I did notice that the "SPAM" posts went away the next day so someone was watching and administrating. Wonder who? Thanks for you response. What do you know about? Private Enum XXX [_Something] Another End Enum The only place _ is used in code (not line continuation) and one of the few places [] is used.

The square brackets are used as the underscore is not a valid character. -- Regards Michael Cole Actually, something odd has been happening
the last couple of days. Your Friday posts just showed up for me, on Sunday. For a couple of days I've been seeing older posts show up as new, not at the bottom of the list. Same here. Posts out of order once in a while.

There has always been and probably always will be a problem with the discussions web page interface. It simply lags behind the NNTP servers.
