Problems posting to CLAX...

I seem to be having trouble posting to the comp.lang.asm.x86
group. I believe it has to do with Road Runner/TimeWarner/
BrightHouse outsourcing their newsgroup connections to either
another company (or just moving connections to another one
of their own (newer?) servers). Their servers in December,
2005 became problematic back then but they fixed most of
the problems by February 2006. They changed something in
in earlier December 2006 (looks like they moved to "bigger,
as in much greater disk space, but much slower" servers).

I sent a post on 2007/01/26 at 11:11am to the thread

Re: [Clax86list] Looking for "binary bombs"

It never showed up at the server, and groups.google.com seems
confirms that they never grabbed it off the servers, so that pretty
much eliminates Outlook Express issues (I even reset that inside
OE, as sometimes is necessary when something like a power
supply decides to capoot - an Nspire power supply lasted over
ten years, a cheap replacement lasted less than 3 months).

I'm crossposting this message to both groups.
