OT Problem with this uk.rec.gardening
 
I am using SeaMonkey, News.Individual.Net and Windows XP. I am having a
very specific problem, it is only with uk.rec.gardening out of the 7
newsgroups to which I subscribe.
If I do a search for sender I have the messages displayed by that sender
but SeaMonkey then loops and the only way to close it is by force. I've
asked this question of both SeaMonkey and News.Individual.net neither of
who can help. If I use another news provider it is ok.
Anyone any ideas please? Also is there anyone else using the same
combination who do, or do not, have the problem, I would love to hear
from them.

Try asking in seamonkey's own newsgroup -

netscape.public.mozilla.seamonkey

which is available on news.indvidual.net

I did Michael, no help there I'm afraid. No I must amend that the help
given (delete all and start again) did not work.

Perhaps you had difficulty understanding the language:-).
Could it be that the folder is corrupted? Have a root around in win explorer
and delete the folder uk.rec.gardening. I know this works with o/e but I
have no knowledge of seamonkey.

I deleted all files appertaining to uk.rec.gardening, including the .msf
file, to no avail, however I will have another go. Thanks

It's probably my out of date terminology but it's the actual folder that
contains messages from ukrecgard that should be deleted. Is it buried
somewhere obscure. ?
I had a quick look at the seamonkey site and noticed they have a final
release which I assume you are using. It wouldn't harm to attempt a repair
by reinstalling over the top of the existing files assuming you have the
restore facility activated in XP.
Noticed on some forum which I have now lost -it says some problems can be
fixed by changing profile (preferences).

What is 'non sensible' about news.individual.net?

He should obviously be using standard software like OE.
No probs here with NIN and OE.

You know my views on OE already: don't use it for email. The
script-kiddies don't get in via n.i.n. and OE as long as it's used
strictly for newsgroups only. FLW, I suppose; but I've never heard of a
problem with this restricted use.

In any case, one must always use either a fake or a secondary email
address when posting to Usenet; and with a spare address, it's a good
idea to munge it a bit and apply your provider's filters. Tell friends
and family to send you those bulk email jokes and campaigning messages
with blind carbon copies or not at all. It's ages since I got more than
about four spam emails a day on the address you see above: that's better
than the garbage which falls out of the newspaper or comes through the
letter-box in the door.

Well, it took me 10 minutes to find you lot. I don't know what happened
between 4.40 and 6.50 today but from where I am, google beta, it's now
impossible to respond without having to make my way through tons of
crossposts and incomprehensible stuff. There are perhaps 200 threads
made out of rubbish by I'd imagine one lunatic, before I can get to a
post from someone I've posted to before. So I'm off to sort myself out.
Missing Turnpike very much and hoping OE will be an easier way to post.

I've been using OE for many years and have never, ever, had trouble with
posting, or sending and receiving emails.

What is your problem with OE?
