around Jan. 5 (?) of 2023 ... i started having problems ( trying to post from Groups.Google.com)

(at first, (some days) i couldn't post anything at all )

For the past 2 (?) weeks ... i can respond to an existing post (like i'm doing now)

but i can't start a new Thread. --- i get this same Error-Msg : [ Error posting message. X ]

Thousands of ppl must be having the same problem, no ?
