Just letting you all know we're working on the frustrating and increasingly frequent "Load at xx.xx, try again later" errors when reading this forum through NNTP. They are caused by a significant growth spurt in newsgroup readership that occurred in recent times. We are working with our provider to fix these issues. Thanks, Andrei |

Ah cool. That was annoying enough, but the worst offenders were the errors when posting from the web interface.

I've learned years ago to never trust a web page or a browser. I always type inside the Emacs *scratch* buffer and then copy and paste from there to the browser window. (I did it again! :) Actually no, this is a Thunderbird window, but still...)

Youch. I didn't realize that was happening. I post from Thunderbird, and if it fails you just try it again.
Anyhow, thanks to Jan Knepper for hosting us and figuring out a solution.

I wrote the message, hit send, and then right after it "finished" sending the message, an NG error popped up and the message was lost. As far as I can see, Thunderbird doesn't save sent NNTP messages anywhere unless you explicitly tell it to. :( > > Anyhow, thanks to Jan Knepper for hosting us and figuring out a solution. -- - Alex |

For the record: forum.dlang.org doesn't do this.
