With almost 1000 threads in this newsgroup, I'd some times like to find
a particular thread, but whenever I try to search it fails, with the
message "A News (NNTP) error occurred: chaining not allowed".
What does this mean? What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for any advice anyone might have.

Larry, as I understand it, this means that you are not allowed to
conduct a search on this server! (well, something like that!!)
However, all is not lost.......
Down in the bottom right hand corner is what looks like a power
extension cord plugged into another extension cord (the On-Line
indicator). Click on this, i.e. go off-line, the do your search
(Tools->Search Messages), make your selections and see how you go.
Don't forget to come back on-line when finished searching.
HTH
Thank you, Daniel. That hadn't occurred to me. Seems to work!

News servers such as news.mozilla.org have the XPAT support disabled, so
you won't be able to search on line in this news group. Instead of
going off-line, you can also check the "Search Local System" box in the
upper left hand corner of the search window. That let's you search
whatever you have stored locally.
