This is just recent and only seems to be affecting posts by J M Davies, which are often enlightening so it is a bit frustrating. I get the following error in the web interface:"Don't know how parse text/html message"I have switched to email for now but I actually prefer the web interface. All D documentation is close to hand while I'm reading messages that very often go way above my level. Is there a bug tracker for the web interface? Cheers, ed

I get the following error in the web interface:This is not a bug in the web interface, but a misconfiguration on the poster's part. Newsgroup messages are expected to contain a text part, since many clients will ignore any other text formats. That includes DFeed, because displaying HTML messages securely is not trivial."Don't know how parse text/html message"I have switched to email for now but I actually prefer the web interface.

I get the following error in the web interface:Is this still happening (like with this e-mail)? My current employer blocks SMTP, so when I'm at work, I'm forced to post via the web interface (instead of my local client, which I'd much prefer to use), and my e-mail provider just changed their web interface recently, which made it so that they were sending really munged messages (which were probably html). I think that I've managed to force it to be plaintext again, and my messages seem to no longe be munged, but maybe there are still problems. Certainly, if my messages ever show up as anything other than plaintext, I'd like to know so that I can fix it. - Jonathan M Davis"Don't know how parse text/html message"I have switched to email for now but I actually prefer the web interface.
