Daniel, When anyone first joins Yahoo! Zen Forum their posts have to be manually reviewed and approve. Edgar and I do that. I have now changed your membership so that your posts will be posted without review.
I hope this will solve the delay you noticed. ...Bill! --- In [email protected], "empty0grace" <empty0grace@...> wrote: > > Hi Donald, > > I have tried to get this posted several times today, but keep on getting an > error message.
