what happened?

i saw a question last week (nntp header #1 below) and answered it
(nntp header #2 below) and yesterday saw a question (by the same
asker, but that didn’t register at first) in nntp header #3 below)…

in the questioner’s follow-on posting to yesterday’s question i
realized i had already answered his question and wanted to give him a
link to my last week’s answer, only to not be able to find it in the
http side…neither his question nor my answer exists there…why?
what happened?

to help the trace, here are three headers:

oldcpu answered this one in the other thread you replied to.

Hi
It accidentally got removed due to an extra ordinary rush of spam at
the end of the month, the user was advised and asked to repost :slight_smile:
