Forum access problem

Post by josephj »

I just got a topic reply notification email (pasted at end of this). It has a link to the latest post and one to the topic. The link to the topic works, but the latest reply was in July (so why the email now?).

The link to the latest post (the first link) takes me to a page that says:

"You are not authorized to read this forum."

The url looks almost identical to the the one that works.

TIA

Joe

The reply was spam, Joe, which was split off to a private holding tank that's not publicly accessible. That happens now and then. Sorry about the confusion.

Edit: And thanks for including the message you received. I needed that to verify what happened.
