Okay, I know what you mean but I surely hope you are not in any way
legitimating her approach in giving answers which led to this discussion we
have now. I mean that I have seen her "sometimes" giving adequate answers
but mainly she choose to be abusive, and that is a pity when she obviously
have the abilty to know the answer to the question.

No, I am not posting to MS servers via my ISP's news-server even if it looks
I am. The first post I made was via the web-interface at Microsofts
Discussiongroups, but this and the second I made is/was through OE but I am
subscribed to msnews.microsoft.com. I guess if her post gets filtered out I
still have them in my local cache, but if I reset the newsgroup, or
unsubscribe, clear the cache and subscribe again they will be gone, but this
time they are still here for me.
Best regards,
Gunilla.

Legally, she's entitled to post whatever she wants, whether or not you or I
disapprove of her. My opinion of her posts is, at best, irrelevant.
(She's also demonstrated on more than one occasion that she really doesn't
take notice of such criticisms of her posts. By posting them, all you're
really doing is preventing a few more electrons from sitting at the dole
queue)

Odd. I must be out of practice at interpreting headers.

The vast majority of her posts from the past months have been filtered out
before they appeared. Viewing from a third-party server would reveal them.
