Hey computer nerds
 

For some reason I can't reply to Katy's posts. I get the below error
message. Can anybody tell me why?

TIA, Scotty

As it indicates, line 4 in the headers is too long. I think it has something
to do with the references to previous posts in the thread, which is used by
newsreaders to build the sequence of replies. There's a set limit to how
long this line can be (might be 1000 bytes), but it's possible that not all
servers implement the limit. The problem, to some extent, may rest with
Outlook Express - ISTR reading that it has a tendency to write rather too
much information into that line (or doesn't manage it properly), such that
some servers will reject the post.

I've had it happen occasionally when using the individual.net server, but
replying to the same post via my ISP's text server worked okay.

Oh, I didn't realize it meant in the header. But why then can I reply
to others in the same thread?

That used to happen all the time when I was still using individual (formerly
berlin)...since I switched to ATT it hasn't happened...it would most often
happen with Horvath's posts and with the posts from alt. insane, aviator
crossposts...
