Have you got any more ideas I could try? The UUencode trick does not
work for me. I can download and read the newsgroups no problem, but I
get the same error code the OP does when trying to reply using WM.
Vista, Windows Mail, Firefox for a browser if that matters. Google
Groups are okay, but not ideal.

Thank you for any ideas anyone may have,
Carmen
