If you get this, it's working now.** I haven't had any problems.

All other grpoups are fine , just here that is affected . Good thing I
remembered I have this account with blocknews ! I'm considering
dropping
eternal-september altogether , I bought a 10gig block here and have
barely touched it . I need to see what current prices are and what my
usage is , not that a few bucks will break me . And I'll bet they're
more reliable too .
I had a problem with eternal september for about 2 days a week or so
ago


I just find it very odd that only one newsgroup is affected .


Have they appeared yet? Sometimes due to the nature of NNTP's 'flood'
propagation things get delayed for some servers in the bang path but not
for others in other bang paths.


Nothing has come since the 20th of June ... but that's OK , as cheap as it
is I'm going to switch over to blocknews for all my usenet traffic . Added
bonus is that they don't restrict file size in binary groups . I compared s-e
and blocknews in the one binary I use and blocknews had many files that e-s
has apparently blocked for size . All photos of very old motorcycles ...


That borders on being criminal.

Well, free is free and one can have several free servers for when they
crap out - and they all do I think.
