| | Sign in error When I try to sign in to Microsoft Communities to read, for example, THIS news group, I get this error: Windows Mail in unable to use Microsoft Communities features at this time. Please try signing into Microsoft Communities again later. A similar error occurs if I don't sign in initially, but instead sign in when I try to send a message to, for example, this group. In addition, when I'm sending I get an error saying my message was posted successfully (yes, it says "successfully") and followed by a long description of the error which, in effect, says the same thing the above message says. When I look later, my message has been posted. I get replies from folks, so I guess it's really out there. I'm at the "this is annoying" stage. Things seem to work, but I'm getting error messages every time I try to sign in, post a message, or post a reply. - Bill |

Here's what I got posting the original message in this thread: ----BEGIN---- Your message was successfully posted. However, Windows Mail was unable to contact the community server, so rating, category, and other community information was not included with the message. See the News error log for details. Subject 'Sign in error', Account: 'Microsoft Communities', Server: 'msnews.microsoft.com', Protocol: , Port: 80, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 200, Error Number: 0x8007000D ----END---- And I just remembered. This started after I replaced my motherboard, RAM and CPU. I did the phone thing to re-activate, and it's shows that it's properly activated. I didn't notice the problem for a day or two because I don't post to these groups every day. - Bill |

| | Re: Sign in error Hello Bill, You can ignore the error messages - the Community Server is broken, hence the unable to sign into Communities message. You can still post as normal. For the time being, disable the Community features via Accounts, msnews account, properties, Windows Live ID tab. -- Jane, not plain 64 bit enabled :-)Batteries not included.

It eliminates the annoyance of getting warnings I'm going to ignore anyway. - Bill |
