Hi,

I'm a recent new user to this site so excuse me if any of these observations are incorrect. Also, I apologise if this is the wrong forum for this post - I couldn't find a more appropriate one. I have found the following problems:

1) I have to log on every visit despite checking the "remember me" checkbox. I have cookies enabled.

2) I am not notified of replies to my messages even though I opted to.

3) Quite often my messages aren't even posted and certainly aren't up after the specified 24 hours. I am going to re-post this one once a day until it appears.

4) For the life of me, I can't figure out how to see all the recent posts for a specific forum. Clicking on a specific discussion group (eg. 'microsoft.public.dotnet.general') shows a list of recent posts to that group. As soon as your message is no longer recent, it appears to be unavailable (or, at least, not linked) until next month when it becomes part of the archives.

5) I lost my session in the time it took to write this message. Luckily, I had it saved . . .

If anyone can shed some light on these issues I'd be grateful. It's a great site otherwise.

Regards,
Kent
