Mike:
Yep, it's been doing it on and off for the past couple of days, for 
me. I suppose the reason may be because they are trying to fix a 
different problem, though I don't know that. It must be hard to fix 
problems with an always active source program without shutting it 
down. I know I bitch about Yahoo!Mort too, but maybe I shouldn't be 
so hard on them. They aren't taking any of my money to provide this 
service. ;)

A bit of advice for any poster when these things are going on 
(actually, I practice this all the time):

Copy your entire post before hitting Send. Then check to see it has 
been posted before overwriting that copy in your buffer. Or simply 
open/re-open another posting page and paste in your copy. You could 
also save a copy in email draft or in Notepad or Word. You can always
delete it after you've confirmed it's been posted.
