Is there any way to find out what the website thought was spam and then a way to correct it so a message could be sent without having to retype the whole thing ????

Bob, I'm not sure what caused your post to be considered spam. I checked all the settings and there are no filters on. I do know that this forum is on the web and could be accessed by anyone (public), so maybe Bravenet has some sort of filter. I had it happen to me once when I tried to copy and paste an article.
I'm thinking it may have something to do with the length of the post and/or the time it took to post it.

Thanks Jimi... who knew ???????????
