Hello!

I'm seeing some issues when posting replies to posts. The captcha doesn't seem to appear when clicking "send" directly, but does appear when clicking "save and preview" first. Upon solving the captcha, sometimes the page gets stuck in a loop with "sending message to server" (something like that), and I can see the page auto-refreshing every second or so. Is this something others have faced too, or am I doing something wrong here?

Thanks!

Not answering your question but the forums are actually newsgroups (NNTP). It's possible to be relatively happier with a newsreader like Thunderbird. :)

These work for me:

  Server: www.digitalmars.com
  Port: 119

Thank you! I will give it a shot using Thunderbird then! :-)

There's also a mailing list interface for the forum / newsgroups, that I personally prefer, so you can use something like Mutt for the forum, if you're a CLI freak like I am. ;-)
