Re: posting problems in OE 6!



I don't think the file table is relevant.

To get back to your original problem, you make a post to a newsgroup via
OE, the post ends up in your Sent Items folder, but you never see it in
the newsgroup when you view the newsgroup later via OE. Is that
correct?

To get back to basics, look at Tools, Message Rules, Block Sender list
and make sure that you are not in the list.

You may want to create an NNTP log with will show more details about the
communications between Outlook Express and your news server. Select
Tools, Options, Maintenance, Troubleshooting, News. Then access the
news server. The log will be created in the same folder with your DBX
files (see Tools, Options, Maintenance, Store Folder). The file will
have the name of the news server with a .LOG file extension. You may
need to close OE after accessing the news server for the log to get
written to disk.

While logging, make a post and then go back and view the group.

Ok. Can I send you a screen shot of the file table by email so you
can
further analyze it? If not then who would be best qualified for this?
I
still cannot fathom the idea that my ISP is intentionally blocking my
news
posts as mentioned by some MVPs in this forumn! Why would they and
what do
they have to gain? None of this makes any sense to me!

The unknown for csapi3t1.dll is normal. At least it's the same on my
PC. And that file is mostly related to the spell checker.

As for the wab files, my PC has versions and locations for both of
those. But they are both related to the address book. So I don't
think
that is related to your problem.

Ok I just noticed that upon clicking Help/About Outlook Express and
reading
the file versions some files are listed as <unknown>! Specifically
they are:

1)csapi3t1.dll
2)wab32.dll
3)wab32res.dll

When looking under full path they are not in C:\Program Files or
C:\Windows
rather they seem to just exist on their own! Other files also fall
in
this
category including files with known versions! Am I getting hot or
is
this
irrelevant?

I don't know if this is relevant but I recently did a system file
check
upon
booting and then a system defrag. If there were any system
files
missing
wouldn't this be picked up and corrected at that time?

I reinstalled Windows Xp SP2 several months ago after a Spy
sherriff
infection. I went to an online help site which guided me in
removing most
of
the problems but certain applications stopped functioning
correctly
after
that especially the IE mini browsers. Most common applications
such as
Word,
Paint, Notepad, etc use this mini browser in their help menus.

After reinstalling windows and the updates the help menus are
work
correctly
again however the posting problem has still not been resolved
and I
am
starting to get annoyed because most of my free time is being
spent
trying
to
solve problems instead of enjoying the internet!

I am not having any problems with emails and this is what is
perplexing
me.
Since message posts get blocked why don't the emails do also
unless
they
are
being sent with a different method?! I willing to bet money
some
crucial
system file is missing or corrupted but if this is the case how
can
it be
replaced/re-registered? What is the name of this file?

I remember re-registering Windows picture and fax viewer last
year
after
it
too would not respond after clicking on images. I was told to
register a
file by using the run command.

I hope am not boring anyone with this but I think the more
information one
has the better the chances for a correct diagnosis and timely
resolution!


On the Servers tab of the msnews.microsoft.com account make sure
that
the
option to logon is NOT checked.

Are these messages in your Sent Items?
