Hi Jim,
I think we "typed" together before on another OE problem I had quite some months ago.

View = All Messages (and has always been set that way)
Synchronization = All Messages (and has always been set that way)

Jim, this is really a bizarre... and rare... event. I help folks on the MSAccess
newsgroups, and post about 1000 responses a year.
I often "Save" a draft, then return later to finsh and post.

If nothing "obviously" comes to your mind as to what might have happened, I don't want
to press the issue because it's very infrequent.

The only thing I can hang my hat on is that the bug "acts" as though I had seen my post
on the NG, and then deleted it.
(I know I didn't...)
I did use another "Identity" in OE, and did see my post, just like everyone else could.

** Is there any way I can retrive a deleted post on my regular Identity?

Thanks for your help and your quick reply,

Make sure your View settings for the particular news group are set to View/Current
View/Show All Messages and that no other items are checked. See if that fixes it.

Hello all,
Ran into a very weird problem with newsgroup posts. I am a frequent responder,
and an occaisional poster myself.

Setup:
I created a New newsgroup post, but was unable to finish the post at that time.
So, I did a Save of the post, and it was placed in my Drafts folder automatically.
Later I returned to complete the post, and then Sent it.

Problem:
The post (for me) never showed up on the newsgroup. All others in the newsgroup
could see my post, but I couldn't. Some folks responded, but I could not see any of
their responses.

It's as though I had manually Deleted my own post. (I'm sure I didn't... I never
even saw it to delete it)

Also.. I couldn't see it via OE, but I could see it through Google Groups.

Is there an issue with "saving" a partial "newsgroup" post in Drafts, and then
Sending that completed post at a later time?

Thanks,
Al Camp
