 * Hello,
 * I solved by asking to my web provider by this respond:
 * Protection of Apache, mod_security d’Apache, in their server.
 * Cheers.

 * Hi,
 * that problems sound like the provider disabled WordPress connections to itself.
   But our plugin uses the internal cron from WordPress. One Solution that some 
   people apply is to [disable mod_security](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/406-not-acceptable-3?replies=6#post-764794).
 * Other Question: Do you get WordPress Updates, News and can use future posts?
 * regards,
    Robert

 * Hi,
 * Sorry for this delayed reply.
 * Thank you Robert it works now by adding lines in .htaccess :
 * `
    <IfModule mod_security.c> SecFilterEngine Off SecFilterScanPOST Off </IfModule
