Sorry for this test folks, but absolutely everything I post here, no matter how PSP-9 related vanishes completely.
I'm still able to receive posting from the PSP 9 Newsgroup, but no sends ever get throught. I may be grumpy, but I don't write offensive stuff about C****
I've written to support@corel askimg if they could look in to it for me, but nothing...
This is posted as a plain Ng posting. Dave S

Others have issues posting images, but I haven't heard of anyone not being able to post text, so this is very strange.
My first suggestion, for what it's worth, is to try posting a text message with another newsreader. You likely have OE installed, so you could try with that first. It's a stretch, but perhaps it's an issue with Pluto and not Corel.

Possible, but considering my posts to the PSP-X2 Ng go through okay, and 99.9 percent of all my postings to mailing lists and newsgroups are through Pluto.
I have a vague thought I've already tried that using Thunderbird. I'll try again later this evening.
Thanks for the thoughts

How very interesting that two texts posted from Thunderbird worked okay.
How very interesting that my postings to X2 using Pluto work, but postings to PSP 9 don't.
How unfortunate that finding this is not much help as I don't do my Mail/Mailing list/Newsgroups posting/receiving on a Win PC.

You might want to look into how you have your Pluto newsreader configured. The headers of your posts with Pluto seem not to specify Content-Type or Content-Transfer-Encoding while in Thunderbird they are: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Maybe in the absence of a specification the Corel ISP or news server assumes something silly and eats the message as a result. |

I've now reconfigured Pluto to include that data and sent a test posting from the other machine, as of writing this in Thunderbird, the test posting has not re-surfaced.
Thanks for the thoughts, appreciated.

This posting returned from the Corel News servers, but the Pluto test post (Posted somewhile before the above) has not returned.
So one has to assume it's something else.
