Happy holidays Y'all
        I had this problem just last week...I could not post to newbie , 
although I could receive OK...and I could not resub as the MDK server 
refused to accept anything from me....
        Other people in my address book received my messages OK it seemed but 
then I discovered that anyone on AOL was not getting them either.....

        My problem turned out to be....as I was fooling with Kmail I 
misspelled  "worldnet" in the from line as "wroldnet" but the reply to 
address was spelled correctly. most ISP's do not check to see if a 
sender uses a valid address....but evidently AOL and "newbie " does? as 
they rejected my messages.....I suppose that is a anti spam thing?

double check those spellings, I overlooked that one a dozen 
times...also look for a random period that you finger may have put in 
by itself?

        like the "tester" once said (paraphrased)....those tiny viruses get 
their sharp little claws into my keyboard....
