Responding from e-s, your post came through fine, if you get my response

I think you mean Eternal September, not "Septemper", a typo?

Maybe that was the problem, I was connected to the wrong server,
Eternal Septemper.

Almost all of my headers and articles disappeared, I had only 200
items, 60 of them had length zero but were locked, 40 of them had
various statuses and had lenghts up to 2 million, and only about 40
looked normal.

I deleted all but the 40 normal ones and dl'd 1000 recent headers, and
everthing seems fine now.

I just assumed it was tongue in cheek to display your frustration.

How did you connect to a NNTP server that does not exist in DNS?

C:\ping eternalstemtemper.com

Ping request could not find host eternalstemtemper.com. Please check
the name and try again.

Correct server is:

news.eternal-september.org

I keep forgetting it is not dot com

....

eternal-september.org can be accessed via the following server names
and ports::

Client Settings
Server name: news.eternal-september.org
Port : 119 (NNTP)
Port : 563 (encrypted connection NNTPS)

Servername: reader80.eternal-september.org
Port : 80

Servername: reader443.eternal-september.org
Port : 443 (encrypted connection NNTPS)

The number of concurrent connections to the server is limited to 4

I called them up and asked real nice, and they put another server
online.

C:\ping eternalstemtemper.com

Ping request could not find host eternalstemtemper.com. Please check

You have to call them first. The guys with pull take long weekends,
but I'll get you their phone number by Monday.
