Changing the value during an edit of an existing message doesn't save the change. Is this a bug?

No, it's by design. The settings are saved only for new postings.

Why?
It's contrary to how I expected it to work.

Because it seemed to be confusing to some people that when they went back and changed a seetting on an old message, it would update settings for new users.
I'm happy to change it so it updates regardless of new/edit.

I guess that could make sense if someone wanted to cut off a mailbomb from a heavily replied message. If you keep it that way, I think some sort of indication about the reduced scope would be in order. Possibly a Save Settings for All Future Messages checkbox with a context sensitive default.

Hi Dan,
... duhhh ... how could I forget/miss that the option is part of the mail-composing dingus and works on a per-message basis ?

"Many : not conversant with mathematical studies, imagine that because it [the Analytical Engine] is to give results in numerical notation, its processes must consequently be arithmetical, numerical, rather than algebraical and analytical. This is an error. The engine can arrange and combine numerical quantities as if they were letters or any other general symbols; and it fact it might bring out its results in algebraical notation, were provisions made accordingly."

You can now set these values from within the settings page.

I have two articles of mine edited in less than 5 days; this site is becoming too nicely buggy.
Now, I'm able to read my articles and understand what I've written.
Thank you, Deeksha.

AFAIK : you can only edit article if the article is an "Unedited contribution", Other wise you have to send mail to CP Editor with the updated article and they will do the rest !

No  This is not good way...

Yes. It is.
The editing process allows the editors to massage documents into the CP format, and ensure that articles are "worthy" of the CP badge. It would be a retrograde step for you to be able to undo their hard work after.

Yes, you're right but an approval system would be nice. I mean, you edit the article using CP editor(little changes) and press update. And any admin or site dev approves it(like they do to email) ?
Do you think someone should need to write an email for a little change ?

To add to what Abhijit said, it'd be best if you used the "Get Article's HTML" link to get the edited HTML, and then made your changes to that before sending in the update. That way the editors will be able to update your article in a quicker manner.

and in the same league: there is a "LINQ and .NET 3.5" forum, what about NET4.0?

A thread titled 'Windbg' keeps appearing and disappearing.
I read the post, went off and found a solution, came back and it had gone. Went and did something else, came back and it was there again. Rather stupidly I refreshed before replying and there it was, gone.
[Edit]
It's just done it again. Is the damned thing on a piece of elastic attached to one of the hamster wheels?
[/Edit]
[Edit * 2]
I think I'm going mad. It is there again, but when I hit reply I get a message not found error. AAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!!!

Hi Henry,
it is my experience you can't reply to a message that doesn't want to be there, so to refresh or not to refresh is not the question.
BTW: who is the inconstant poster anyway? and did you solve his problem?
maybe you should write an article about it then...

The Poster was Richard Andrew x64.
I did find a solution to his question, but I don't think we need an article on Googling. Now, an article on Gargling might make an interesting read.

Sounds like someone posted a message which was then cached on one server but removed on another server's cache. Things should catch up in the next few minutes.

I had some trouble posting last night, Chris. On the first try it would say the message could not be posted, on further tries it would say the message was already posted, but it never shows up. I posted a thread on that in the Suggestions forum, and that showed up for a while, and then vanished after 5 minutes. I made a reply above just a few minutes ago and that seems to have posted fine so whatever the issue was, it seems to be working alright now.
