I see your post, so, no.

The low posting rate is due to no electronics questions being asked on
S.E.D.


All the sci.electronics groups seem to be gummed up with spam!


I see very little spam from Supernews. I have set a few filters in
Agent, with regard to shoes and such.

Same here.

Since you mention supernews, have you noticed that there's sometimes
no valid route to it?

Happens here and I'm trying to ascertain if it's supernews or the ISP.

A route trace tells me supernews has their ICMP TTL screwed up
creating false hops.

Once in a while they seem to go offline for 30 second or so, but not
often. I think Supernews was acquired by someone lately, but I use
them just the same. I suppose I should try the Forte (Agent) server
and save a little money.
