Subject: can't post to newsgroups

I am just writing to ask why I can no longer post to newsgroups.
Up until last week, I had no problems, but since then an error comes up
each time I try and doesn't allow me to post.  Please get back to me as
soon as possible with some sort of explanation, for there are certain
newsgroups I must stay in contact with.  Just in case, I have tried many
different newsgroups, and none of them work for me.  Thank you.

What is the error that you get?  maybe your nntp-posting-host is no longer
allowing posting.

 Now.. now.. now.. You should know better than to just ramble on without
giving _ANY_ details whatsoever about your problem. :) We are
not magicians here, you know!  What errors are you getting? What 
is your environment?  Have you tried to get in touch with your sys admins
or NNTP admin to see if they have disallowed posting from that NNTP server?
