posting messages to freebsd-newbies new group
Hello: I have been trying for days to configure Mozilla Thunderbird 0.5 and now Outlook Express as my new reader, I am able to read postings, but I cannot post any messages. When I attempt to post a message I get the following error: Outlook Express could not post your message. Subject 'Verifying FreeBSD ISO images', Account: 'news.gw.com', Server: 'news.gw.com', Protocol: NNTP, Server Response: '440 Sorry, you're not allowed to post.', Port: 119, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 440, Error Number: 0x800CCCA9 I have officially requested joining the new group and confirmed my request, they sent me back a password, but even though I have used my email address with my password, nothing has changed, it still gives me the same error. Can you please tell me what else I need to do to be able to post messages to this news groups and others. Regards, David Clarke. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

We don't really have control over the newsgroup, as these are essentially copies of the freebsd-newbies mailing list. I'd recommend emailing your message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead. It should eventually turn up on the newsgroup. Ceri -- pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
