So I setup Thunderbird as a Newsreader for the SYnchronet NNTP server. I can fetch posts and subscribe to groups but I cannot make or reply to posts. Help plz. :)

Look at the Synchronet "Services" log/window for output from nntpservice.js. It should give some indication what the problem is.

First off, make sure you have the proper access requirements set in SCFG for those specific message areas (obviously if you didn't set anything specific, it
should still work).

I don't think it works exactly like email in which button you hit to reply. There's an added one I think to the left of the normal "reply" button (reply forward, or some such.. I don't remember exactly).

Obviously not. There is a setting under server settings for your NNTP account to "always request authentication when connecting to the server". Make sure that box is checked.

You're not doing anything wrong. Apparantly the system you're connecting to is,
though.

For example, you *should* be posting as your own alias, as in Deavmi or whatever. But as you can see in the headers (if you can see them) your name in the TO and FROM fields is always "Darkages", which it shouldn't be.

Unless he created the account on a different BBS, it wouldn't have made any difference until I fixed the Darkages account here. But anyway, that's resolved.
