Last night I tried to post here but it never got through. Perhaps it was a
higher power saving me from myself, which in a just world would happen more
often, but in case it wasn't, I'm wondering what the problem could be, since
the Sent box and the Deleted box were empty (the usual cause of my very
infrequent problems in OE).

The post was short but contained a very long URL. Could this have been the
problem?

No, that couldn't have been the problem. Very possibly, since you can get
through now, the server you connected to was down.

It's got to be the URL. I reposted the original message on this thread and
then about three minutes later posted the "(test)" post.

The URL was actually intended for you, since it would have made you an
instant millionaire, or at the very least, maybe fifty bucks richer.

If you paste this into an ebay searchbox:
2007 DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME RULE CHANGE
it will take you right there.

Last night they wanted 99 cents, now they want five bucks! Maybe they've
found a few takers.
Just out of curiousity maybe you could try to post the page URL and see if
you have any problems.
