Hello. I'm using Windows Live Mail to read Newsgroups and have posted stuff
once in a while.
but recently, my posts aren't showing , neither does any others. There's a
gap missing of about 2 to 5 hours around the time I posted mine. (apx).
So I went on to the Microsoft newsgroup website to check and there I saw my
posts together with replies.
Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how to solve it please. I've
missed some vital replies.
Thank you

Greetings JB,

I had this exact problem as well. It seems the "community features" which relay your posts
through the Microsoft communities web server is having problems. People on communities will
see the posts, but they don't get reflected back to the newsgroup.

As a workaround for the time being, you can just turn it off by pressing the Alt key within
Live Mail, then Tools, then Options, and unchecking 'Use newsgroup Communities support
features' in the General tab.

Hi,

I did it a few days ago, and all my posts since have worked.
