There may be but the op may be having trouble posting to this group, so he did what I or any other sensible person would do and post a 'test' message' then if it appears on his machine he has been successful, simple really!

But as shazzbat is a regular member of urg, it wouldn't hurt anyone to help out a friend, perhaps? -- Agree. Perhaps the strict guidelines were laid down when only dial-up was available and I certainly would have been annoyed by a test post when I was, because I had to pay per minute but now I have broadband available - and most have by now- I see no reason why an urg member cannot send a test post. It does after all, say "please ignore" but no-one I know can ignore a post that says that ;-) Tina |

It does after all, say "please ignore" but no-one I know can ignore a post that says that ;-) I'm on a GSM dongle... and in English... I have a USB stick attached to my laptop which is effectively a mobile phone. It can't make calls. It can only use the 'data' facilities that smart phones need. I purchase my data. When we were on dial up we'd get the bill at the end of the month. I'm on PAYG. When I hit the end of the credit I've bought, my internet access is cut off. I pay for *every* post I download. Given that, the size of a test post compared to opening Facebook is infinitesimally small. there are no pictures on usenet (well not the groups I frequent). Warwick - 2Gb remaining |

That's exactly what happened to me on dial up. .. Luckily I have broadband now., and I only use my phone for emergencies. |
