G'day Todd,

Over the past week or so I'd sent a couple messages your
way regarding an intermittent posting problem using the
web interface.  I hadn't received a reply, but I guess
you've been sick/busy.  But anyhow, I have since been
able to get a better description of the problem:

If I try to post/preview a message that has any line
beginning with spaces, my internet connection hangs.
The browser goes unresponsive, I can no longer check
email, and sometimes it drops carrier.  The only way
to fix it is to disconnect and reconnect.  If I
remove the leading spaces from my message text, it
posts okay.

Any ideas?  I never used to have this problem.  The
only thing that has changed is I am currently "roaming"
using a dial-up 56k connection, rather than my
usual DSL connection.

Thanx,
KDJ

(...) When you say "intermittent," do you mean that it happens sometimes but not all the time? What do you mean by "leading spaces"? Do you mean lines that begin with space characters (i.e., ASCII #32) or do you mean whole blank lines? About how (...) (24 years ago, 31-Dec-00, to lugnet.admin.nntp)
