- When trying to post a reply, I get an error bidding me to email groups-support@google.com.

But I dont want to spent my time emailing at them
But since Blogger Help is our last resort when things go wrong, we had better try and make sure that it's working. And now would be a better time to start, then in 2 days when the weekend is upon us and Google is all off.
From dealing with the Blogger no-help system a couple months ago, I am almost certain that their "help" system only alerts them when a LOT of complaints about the same problem are present. So we had better start reporting this, or it may not be fixed for days.
The "403 Forbidden" blackout 3/6 - 3/15 was far too long. It didn't take Blogger that long to fix the problem, some of that time was us convincing them that there was a problem. That won't happen again.
