[SI] Where are the comments on FOOD?

I figured 1 and 2 might be something to argue over, and 3 was really pretty ho-hum. But my system shows no comments at all, only [SI] Food comment - xxxxxx (response) ????????? Alex |

Alex The problem seems to be at your end of the pipeline. I posted my comments on 06-13-2012, and others have responded to that thread. Several other contributors have made comments some of which I have responded to. With your exception, all of us seem to have no trouble receiving and viewing the comments and responses posted thus far. I would hate to learn that you had somehow filtered us from your Usenet experience. -- Regards, Savageduck |

I see you are using MS Windows Live Mail which is not a dedicated Usenet client, Alex is using a good client in Forte Agent. I am sure he will be able to empty the message cache and reload, but I don't know how you would go about it with Live Mail. All I can say is it might be worth a try. -- Regards, Savageduck |

I've been using Forte Agent for something like 10 years. I've never had to empty my message cache. I wouldn't even know how to do it. I've never missed a message as far as I know. There are some I wish I would have missed, though. That's nice, but Alex has some sort of problem, not necessarily with Agent, but probably with his server. Clearing the message cache and reloading the troublesome NG might be a possible solution for him. -- Regards, Savageduck |

Agent does not know the term 'message cache' and, although it in effect has one, it provides no way to deal with it. You may be able to delete it if you know the right file (out of many) but it's not recommended for the faint hearted. Regards, Eric Stevens |

Regards, Eric Stevens With my client, Unison, I can empty the "Message Cache" for non-binary groups, and the "Preview Cache" which deals with thumbnails, audio, and video binary groups. It is quite a simple menu selection, and was under the impression that Agent might have had a similar provision. This allows for a clean reload of the effected group and has occasionally solved some problems for me. -- Regards, Savageduck |
