I tried emacs once as a student and fled back to vi. Never used it since so
I wouldn't even know if it had gained sentience and run for office never 
mind what its built in utilities are.

I think I turned it off...  I've been fiddling with Gnus/Emacs for
years.

That makes sense. I guess the entertaining part, now, is figuring out 
how to turn it back on..

*I addressed your plea*

*Can you please begin reviewing my work again on comp.theory?*
*I just got out of the hospital I was very sick*
I will post the full C source-code of the halt decider.

Primarily I want it addressed as software engineering.
H(P,P)==0 is correct even if H is not a computable function.

Only after it is *fully reviewed* at the software engineering
level (which might be a breakthrough in the field of termination 
analysis) then I want it reviewed as a computable function.

This sort of thing is why I wrote my own usenet utilities. NNTP is a pretty
simple protocol so anyone with network programming experience should have
no problem doing the same.

Perhaps you should post this to Thunderbird Newsgroup where they might 
tell you what your mistakes. Thunderbird is pretty robust newsreader.

I did. I even raised a formal bug, and found other people reporting the 
same thing.

Sadly the Thunderbird team seem more interested in new features.

I might get around to downloading the source and investigating, but 
despite having just retired I don't seem to have the time.

I already got them to move to comp.theory because of Ben's plea.
