RFC 3977 ?

Formally 977.

What does the NNTP protocol have to do with anything?

[SteveBell]

I installed one of the plastic ones not long ago. It's basically a fancy plastic picnic plate with a big hole in the middle for a ceiling fan or light fixture. This one came with double-sided tape to hold it to the ceiling. That worked for about 30 seconds, then fell off just as I was raising the ceiling fan. I just tightened the fan fixture, and all was well. There were probably some small gaps, but the client was satisfied, so I was too. If they ever complain, I'll fix it for free.

Posting in these newsgroups? You tell me.

Standards were set for newsgroups. Some folks are not familiar.

I can be wrong, as you can relate?

It was a pointer for the lady; just, imagine.

Without NNTP you would not read this text.

I think the ins and outs of the NNTP protocol are a little beyond what the woman who asked about her medallion wants to deal with, no disrespect to her intended. It's just a matter of learning how to steer your news client to make nicely formatted posts, for which you need to know *nothing* about NNTP (denks Gott!).

Whoops, I had checked the right wording, but I checked the area for emails, and not newsgroups. This should do it. If not, I am at a loss. The good thing is that I don't post much here. LOL

This one worked. By the way, I would recommend bottom-posting for both newsgroups and for email. It just makes more sense (you read from top to bottom, not from bottom to top, right?). It *will* make your emails different from 90% of other's, who just use their email program "out of the box" without bothering to even check their settings, but it will make them more sensible.
