Many thanks for your interest. Done all of that, since 11th April. Prior
thereto everything was fine, going into filtered folders; nothing been
changed about that time.
I dont use gmail; I know own posts get trashed with that e-mail client.
Checked ISP's webmail. Deleted all records so that I could chart what was
happening. Interestingly a post I made from my ISP webmail to a Yahoo group
didnt get a receipt either. I dont like using webmail.
I am leaning toward an ISP fault, but they deny, so I'm up a gum tree.

Check your OE Deleted Items folder. If the receipts are getting trapped
by a Blocked Sender or Message Rule in OE, that's where they would
likely go.

Also check with your ISP's web mail to see if the receipts might be
getting trapped as spam there.

Thank you for your reply. In both Yahoogroups and Rootsweb, when one
opts to
receive individual mails, one gets a "receipt" for one's post, a copy
of it
after it has reached the server and the group. It is these copies
that
suddenly have failed to turn up since 11th April 2007 when for many
years
before I have been receiving them. I run several of my own
Yahoogroups.

It may be coincidental, but, since I installed the last Microsoft
Updates for
my Win XP PC., none of which were IE or OE, on 11th April 2007, I
am mising
posts I have made to Yahoo Groups, and Rootsweb mailing groups. In
both I
subscribe for individual mail receipts. My posts are arriving at
the
website, but I am failing to receive the copies of my posts in the
usual way.
I have not changed my OE6 configuration. It is set to leave a
copy of the
post on the server for a number of days.
My ISP (Tiscali) states it is not their problem, all aspects of the
service
running 100%. I have let Yahoo know about it.
I went back to a Restore Point i.e. 10th April, but it seemed to
have slowed
up my PC. I have plenty of HD and Memory; might have been Avast!
Anti Virus
that didnt like it.
Your advice would be appreciated. BTW I posted this to another
Forum Windows
Updates and though I checked the box to Notify me of replies, I
didnt get the
one response, and was referred here.

Are you missing the locally stored email notices of posts? I don't
know how
Rootsweb works, but YahooGroups has messages on their servers, and
they
should only be removable by the Group owner.
