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 Outlook Express could not post your message. Subject ' Katy get a bigger dink', Account: 'News.Individual.NET', Server: 'News.Individual.NET', Protocol: NNTP, Server Response: '441 Line 4 too long', Port: 119, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 441, Error Number: 0x800CCCA9 |

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. -- Wally www.artbywally.com/FiatPandaRally/index.htm www.wally.myby.co.uk |

The message ID depends on the server used by the person originating the message - you can have a branch of a thread that is loads of messages deep and still be able to reply to it if it so happens that the posters in that branch all used a server which generated short IDs; but a branch that is only a few posts deep could hit the limit if the posters' servers generated long IDs.

Auto-updates are on. Those won't stop a virus, if you do something stupid. This post is 100% free of steroids |
