Question for Moderator

I posted a message entitled "Beware of Yale Mortice Locks" yesterday evening. It is now no longer available.Has something gone wrong? or was it removed because it broke some rule of this group. I know it was factual and therefore cannot be libelous. I thought it was on topic, relevant and likely to be of interest to members of the group.This is a very useful group and I don't want to cause any problems, I would just like to be clear about how it works.TIASteve

|Thanks for all of the replies. I'm happy to hear that I wasn't being |censored. | |There is something odd going on though. I knew that I had posted it in |reply to another thread, so I knew where to look for it. Although the |header was there, the body of my message was not. The weird thing is |that it is there now, but my "question for moderator" post is not |visible at all, although the replies are. | |I've checked all of the settings I can think of and can't see anything |wrong. I'm using Blueyonder newsgroups through Mozilla Firefox. | |Any suggestions?

We all hit the wrong button at times :-(

Might be firefox playing up? that damn browser to surf the net has a tendancy to wipe out the bookmarks now and again. I'm using the same news server as you and never had the problem your experiencing, I'm using OE though as the news reader.

Apologies, it's Mozilla Thunderbird I'm using as a news reader.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember Steve saying something like:

There is no Moderator.

Just Us.

Blame the news server you use or your news client.

Free? Do you and your spouse not pay or have never paid taxes or NI?

PS I was called Shrek when by face was burnt. Sheffield Northern General burns unit was free on the day but I contributed towards some of it beforehand and will gladly keep on doing so.

You'll get several, all saying why your system is useless and you ought to change to

I get those all the time. I stick to what I know, like, am happy with and have no problems with.

Sits back and waits for flack about vulnerability etc - not that anyone's ever had a problem after opening my posts/mails/attachments or envelopes :-)
