Am I the only one having problems to post on google groups? Here's a
citation from tons of "Delivery Status Notification (Failure)"
messages from mailer-dae...@google.com

Hello user...@googlemail.com,

We're writing to let you know that the group that you tried to contact
(tiddlywiki) either doesn't exist, or you don't have permission to
post to it. There are a few possible reasons why this happened:

 * You might have spelled or formatted the group name incorrectly.
 * The owner of the group removed this group, so there's nobody there
to contact.
 * You may need to join the group before being allowed to post.
 * This group may not be open to posting.

If you have questions about this or any other group, please visit the
Help Center at http://groups.google.com/support.

Thanks,

Google Groups

Morris gray had a similar problem a short while ago..
I don't know how he solved it - maybe he had to reenlist?...

Couldn't find the solution searching  the group...

It appears this is another Google Groups glitch, affecting not just this
particular group.
Let's hope they will fix this soon.

I have a feeling that's not what happened...

That's right FND mine was a much simpler error message.

I checked the Google support forum and found there was a whole raft of
people what were reporting the same error but they were all managers
of groups.  Judging by some of the very irritated posts that were
going unanswered I decided Google Support wouldn't bother with mine
either if they were not responding to Group managers.

I finally determined mine was caused by composing the message in
TurboNote and pasting it into Google Groups online.  I had done that
for years because I lost too many messages when Groups timed out
before sending, when all of a sudden I started getting this simple
message You cannot post to Google Groups Contact Support.

I finally surmised I may have picked up some illegal character or
something like that from TurboNote in the copying process.  But the
same error happened no matter what program I copied and pasted from,
NotePad, or even a tiddler.

I assumed then Google may have added some king of spam filter that
somehow knew that the message had not been composed in the Google
posting form.  Possibly it was either that or they have finally
employed just one too many ex-Microsoft employees ;-)

I gave up after that and have stopped copying and pasting.

I've been trying throughout the day to post to a thread, using the
groups.google.com interface. Google keeps telling me my message was
successful, but they never make it into the thread.
This one may be lost too...

Never mind; I think my first posts were held up (and then posted out
of order) because I'm new on the group; as the sign on the door says,
new users' posts "await moderation".
