That posting of yours has vanished for me as well
I wasn't seeing posts disappear before, but ironically Ant's reply to
this one ("Missing newsgroup posts") is getting the "Article not
found" error in Mail/News for me here. However, it displays just fine
in the browser interface:
news://news.mozilla.org:119/7dednrs4hoqmrxtdnz2dnuu7-uxnn...@mozilla.org
So, I'd say this is probably a bug in the Mail/News code.
His most recent post to this thread has also vanished now. I think Ant
has managed to find an option which causes his posts to expire
automatically. The other two options:
- bug in the Mail/News code
- divine intervention by Chris Ilias
seem pretty unlikely.
This is not like Edmund Wong's post which vanished for him but not for
anyone else, Ant's posts are vanishing for everyone. As for it still
being available in the browser interface, I can't understand why there
should be a lag there.
Isn't there a setting that Users can change which means that that post
should not be 'stored' on a news server forever-and-a-day?? i.e. the
messages expires and 'disappears'.
I think it might be possible for a 'newbie' to mistakenly set this
setting ... and then wonder what is going on when their post
'disappears', but I would not expect this to happen in Ant's case, or
for that matter Edmund's case!! ;-)
