So then it's true, even though I can see my old post I made back then, you
all never saw it because my date was wrong and the servers didn't propagate
it, well that's an interesting tidbit. I had wondered why no one responded
to my post when I had made it - and so now I know.

Have a good day,

Rick

I vaguely recall long ago someone else here in this NG discovered date
has to be within a certain range for a post to show up. Possibly it
coincides with how long MS will keep a post at the server-- which I have
reason to believe is 3 months. That seems to be the range of what I've
got in a recently reset OE. If your post was dated 3 months too old,
likely it never would show. But it was 4 months into the future-- so, we
had to wait one month to see it!

Odd, it seems to be dated 5/17/08 (both sent & received) in OE-- but
your .jpg is showing one date of 9/1/08. The post it attaches to is
correctly dated at 4/30/08 in your .jpg.

| Have a good day,

You too, Chauvin.

Re: Thanks for Google Earth for 98!

You only see the one post in my screenshot because I took it just Before I
posted that second time there with that reply to myself - and so actually I
should of taken the screenshot after I posted that reply to myself, but
that's not the way it happened.. I see them both, and I could take another
screenshot if you wanted, but it's no biggy I'm sure..

You always thinkin... that's good.

I see. So, you posted a second one with a correct date. Then, the first
never would show up, either-- no matter it is post-dated, instead of
pre-dated, beyond the 3 month limit at the MS news server? I guess you
are seeing it at a different news server for this NG.

Thanks for the opinion. You -- for sure -- Chauvin, are always a
thinker.
