Post To Group -- used to work, now it does nothing

OK, I don't know how long Post To Group hasn't worked on my computer because I only use it a couple of times a year. Usually for a request post.

When I click on Post To Group the dialog box opens just like it always did, I enter the subject and the text just like I always did, then I click Post Now and the dialog box closes just like it always did -- but nothing happens and there is no new entry in the log showing any sort of attempt.

I'm running registered NewsBin Pro 6.90B12 build 5396 -- everything else seems to work fine, at least all the features that I use work pretty much as they have for years, but suddenly Post to Group doesn't do anything.

I just tried Reply to Group and that doesn't seem to work either.

B12 has been superseded....that said apparently posting without including a file isn't working even in RC3. I'm going to fix it before release.

Thanks.

I'm one of those people who doesn't keep up with every new release (heck, I'm running MS Word 2003 and Windows Live Mail 2011 on this computer). I generally upgrade NewsBin when the MOTD mentions some significant new feature. If I recall correctly, I went to the version I'm running now because of the obscurification changes.

Looks like I'll grab the next release since you're going to fix posting. In the meanwhile I guess I can attach a file if I need to.

Thanks.

I just tested a fix for "Post to Group" and reply. It'll be in RC4.
