ATT follows the herd, and drops the rest of the alt groups.
They dropped binaries a week or two ago- looks like the rest of the alts
are gone now. This probably won't post. So in the words of Les Nesman, we are off the air! -- aem sends... |

I'm with AT&T, and my 11 subscribed alt groups are fine. 1. Mine started working again after I yelled at the tier-1 helpdesk drone via the chatroom. So he was either clueless, or following tomorrow's script and they may still go bye-bye. He did insist on following his script and typing in the whole cover story about the child porn being the supposed reason for dropping binaries. I had to keep interrupting and telling him I wasn't talking about the binaries. (If they wanna costs, just SAY they are cutting costs. Don't **** on my leg and tell me it is raining.) 2. Which ATT? They still haven't really combined all the various ATT ISPs, but they are getting closer. (Look at the drop-down box on the webmail interface for a list.) aem sends, fingers crossed, but starting to look at news server web pages.... |

The former Bellsouth. In a conversation with tech support on a different issue, I asked when I could expect my domain name to change from bellsouth.net to at&t.net and he didn't have a date, but said 'soon'. |

I called ATT to ask about getting call forwarding added to my phone service. They, of course, asked who I used for my broadband. I told them I was using Charter. They wanted to sell me a 6G package. I told them that if they improved their Usenet service I might consider switching. I still may switch, because it is a good deal without Usenet, but Charter still offers unlimited binary Usenet access. (It is throttled to 2-256k connections, but it works out to be 80G of binary free) Any package that offers that would cost 15 bucks. I don't use 80G most months, but some months I come close. |

Actually, I am still on sbcglobal.net and I have a friend that is still on the older ameritech.net. I have heard they don't plan on changing us. Of course, new people get att.net. BTW, I am in the Chicago area. |
