Something must of worked! When I clicked on headers I received my
posting
in record time, less than a minute. Does that mean the ISP was somewhat
correct and somewhat wrong and we were too?

Sometimes header lists can get corrupted. It could happen at your end or as
you download it from your ISP. Often it's just as simple as renewing your
header list as you did. I wouldn't worry about what your ISP said about OE.
If you really feel that OE might have been the problem, upgrade to a newer
version or try one of the two dozen other newsreaders out there.
