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....
