Folks -
I've posted several pictures of my lathe stand project to abpw, and they
*must* have posted because I got a comment about them, but I can't see that
they have posted in the thread. If I do a search by author, they are not
there. WTF?? I have posted 4 messages with pics in the last few days, two
of them are there, the other two are not - far as I can tell - and yet, one
of the "missing" photos got a comment a few hours after I sent it.
I am using OE to post... any ideas what's going on?

Do you have access to more than one news server? Prodigy/SBC isn't always
in the Usenet business.
News servers are available independently from your ISP. Some are free, and
some are merely reasonable. For your purposes, a secondary free server
might be worth investigating.
Various folks here have recommended servers in the past. Google would know
what those are. Setting up OE to view a second, or alternate server, is
pretty easy. Anyone who can successfully make mortised and tenoned doors
should have no problem! ;-)

Hello there!
You see, *that's* the problem... Of my last 4 posts, with .jpg attachments,
2 have posted, two have not, as far as I can tell - yet - I did get a
"Re:(subject) post about my posting, and I *do not* see the post that
prompted the reply.
Odd...

This is weird... Regardless, thanks for the tip!

do you see non binary posts of your own? for that matter, have you
ever seen your own binary posts?
your newsreader may be set to not download your own posts.

Maybe try go to View, Click on Current View and select Show All Messages.
Sometimes when I post to abpw, Outlook marks it as 'read' and it doesn't
appear until I change Current View to Show All.
