What I have posted is for msnews. If you have a problem with other

Can you post to this newsgroup using OE? MIME/None is not mentioned in
the
links. That is why I mentioned it, but that is for posting to MS
newsgroups.
Others may work better with a different setting, but I can't imagine why.


They do not work better either. That is the point.
Outlook Express should use MIME by default for posting.
It uses UUEncode unless you configure it otherwise.
And then you get your name distorted in all possible ways.
And it is really hard to find out why.


That will not be corrected in OE. It is corrected in Windows Mail in Vista.
You should be aware that some newsgroups on other servers than
msnews.microsoft.com (which Bruce and I are using) do not accept MIME
encoded messages.

Answer in newsgroup. Don't expect an answer to email.
