Test Post

Hi ...whomever...

Ok, this is a test post. I posted a comment last night and -according to my
inbox, 3 people have replied.

HOWEVER...

I cannot see either my posting or the subsequent replies....even when I
click on the link through my email

!

I thought maybe my security settings at home might be interfering but it is
the same at work...

I wonder if I will even see this post and thus, the test

<sigh> - you will be FAR better off using a newsreader rather than the
appalling web access.....

The Microsoft web site you are accessing is actually a newsgroup,
and you are accessing it via the awful web interface to it. That's the
slowest, clunkiest, most error-prone method there is. Besides its
regular problems, it seems to have been broken yesterday, and replies
were getting lost.

Do yourself a favor and switch to a newsreader, such as Outlook
Express, which comes with Windows. See

As long as the web interface remains ******* up, these folks can't see
anything we post here. And none of them include an email address, even
a munged email address, so there's no way to tell them what's
happening....
