Select your
Gmane account. The email address is listed under the Default
Identity for your Gmane account.Yea, knew that. :-)But, after
thinking overnight about Florian's message, I
realized that the email address there, which is this email
address, may not be the one I originally used. It dawned on me
that originally, I had originally signed up with the nomail
option for LO, and that original address may no longer exist.
:-)That would explain why you couldn't post through gmane. Since the
address listed in your gmane account is the same as the address
used in this post you should now be able to post through gmaneBut, when I
signed up *again* for the LO mailing list, I'll bet I
used a different email address, and that technically, I've got two
mailing list accounts at LO, and that may be part of the problem.IOW, I
have one account that is "no email blahblah@unknown_account.net" and one
account at
"[email protected] somehow there is confusion between
GMANE, LO, and me.So, if I could get rid of "no email
blahblah@unknown_account.net"
at LO, assuming this *is* the problem, maybe the problem will go
away all on its own. At least, it will be one address that doesn't
have to be tracked and recorded at LO. :-)In other words, I may now be
receiving
GMANE addresses via one email address, and this message thread
via another email address.You do not receive gmane posts through your
email address, but
through your NNTP newsreader. The email address is only used so
you can also be reached by email to confirm your subscription and
so you can be contacted privately.Granted. But, that's not quite what
I'm trying to say. :-)I'm saying I'm reading and responding to this thread
using the email
component of Thunderbird. But, the GMANE NNTP component of
Thunderbird is using the "blah, blah, blah" account for
verification. And "blah, blah, blah" no longer exists, so there is
no verification possible.Try posting a message through gmane to see if it
works. If so you
could change your account at LO to nomail.That's what I was planning, but
I want to know the cause before I
effect a cure. If my suspicion is correct, and I only fix the
wordworks address, I may end up receiving duplicate messages. :-)Ken
