I see these are used quite widely but I don't know yet what they mean.
IMHO

These I know:
LOL
ROFL
IIRC
BTW

If there are any more that I need to know, just let me know.

Thanks

I think there is a setting that is not correct in Outlook Express because I
can't find povray.off-topic, which is why I can't subscribe to it. For
instance: Povray.announce.frequently-asked-questions only has one message.
That's the one about Outlook Express settings. I've checked and
double-checked and everything is exactly the way it should be according to
that post. I'm running WindowsNT4 Workstation Servicepack 6a.

Any ideas?

Nekar

As a Netscape user there is little I can do to help but hopefully one
of the OE guys will offer you some assistance.

  I often use AFAIK (as far as I know), sometimes AFAIR (as far as I remember).
  By the way, ROFL is often also written ROTFL.

  This one is cool: CUL8R :)

    Not only do you have the change the settings to say NOT to delete old
messages, you ALSO have to unsubscribe after doing this, delete the news
server, and readd it.

Yes, but to try and subscribe press Ctrl W then select the news.povray.org
"account" and use the All or New tabs under the listings.
