I got that message too, just after watching Bowie's hot laps.
Hmmm yes I received that message yesterday and today just now
But today is a new day and possibly a new mother board or what ever ??
Thanks for the forum GibGib.

I'll add a few of these to the thanks
A couple of times there seems to be an attempt to divert to habeta ............cgi hope that was legitimate and not a hack attempt I did copy the link just in case..
That's an AF page. The triple whammy came by redirection from the hosting company that stated that AF had been suspended.

When "suspended" came up in the browser (Vivaldi), Instead of using the inbuilt development tools, I used a terminal to echo the HTTPS request and response.
It was a 301 redirection to an internal CGI action.

I have had problems this morning again with various messages. However when answering threads I note that it does load the reply despite the seeming rejection. So i had to remove some double posts from me trying again. So now I just open a second window to check what happened and if the answer is there. Hmm

Whadaya mean Speak English! You are no better than me.
Your second window is analogous in a way to my intercepting the actual server connection to look at what happened.
HTTP (and S ) are protocol "conversations" for connection to a remote computer, and are packets of human readable text. You ask the machine at the IP address to GET you a particular site hosted there. (This IP address hosts hundreds of web sites).
It responds to your browser. There may be a further conversation to ensure that the server and browser will behave as expected, before the web page comes down, or the server may instead just throw back a short message with an error code, which happened here. The code instructed the browser to re-connect, and a non-AF message was sent.
Most normal people don't wish to see this, so the browser won't show it unless directed to, usually by the built-in developer tools.
Think of it as a code reader for internet connections.

Hi
Things were bad yesterday here. I tried to answer several times but could not get it to work.
But then discovered my internet was bad also. Generally got worse till it seemed to not work at all after tea. So who knows what the particular problem was. Today is another day. Seems to be OK just now ??
Hmm maybe not

Still a bit flakey ?? I have learned to ignore any messages and do not repost a second time. It seems to post OK the first time so is just a bit confused Possibly my connection is a bit slow so that may not help.
I note that the reply is posted OK, but the message window still has the message there, which is why we think it needs to be reposted. But I now ignore that and clear it. Some glitch !

After you have posted, immediately hit the Reload button and then you can highlight the entire text remaining on screen and delete it. Your post will then appear "posted".
Wonder if that was due to the introduction of the pushed information where you elect to follow the posts of persons? (News feed)
Very strange variation from where we subscribed to subjects of interest which made it easy to comment if you wished on the new input as seen in the email - without that email its a bit hard to find those threads, and when you do it has wandered on from whatever it was we were discussing.
Does reduce the number of emails deleted each day when a topic is hotly discussed.
though....

Just reviewing a few of the deleted emails on my computer this one was 31/08/2020, and the last watched thread notification seems to be 01/09/2020 - so whatever happened in between those dates threw a small load of gremlins into the equation - Hope this helps the team identify the issue. (burnt the toast...?)
