Hi Michael, I and some of the others use Eternal September, and the
Thunderbird news and email software. There is no compulsory subscription
for either, but donations are encouraged.

From what I remember, Eternal September was quite difficult to set up,
but seems to work well, at least with Thunderbird.

Other than that, either Mark or Kendall might be able to advise if it's
something to do with the ukrc moderation software.

Regards, Tim.

I see one of your articles has now been approved, if you read the
discussion about your posts in uk.r.c you'll see that your posts are no
longer plain ascii

your email is now

=?UTF-8?B?aGVybWVuZXV0aWth?= <hermen...@msn.com>

so your posts won't get automatically approved, if you're continuing to
use google groups you'll need to set it so that posts aren't
automatically non ascii

i am currently posting from a outfit called "newshosting" they also provide a reader/poster software. I am currently not using google any more. Are my posts ok or do i need to change the settings somewhere??
