I'm having trouble with Verizon as well. I spent an hour online and by
phone with them this morning. No joy. They were able to post a test
message to the group from my PC but I can't see it in Outlook
Express, but I can see it through GoogleGroups. The last messages
displayed in OE are from 9/12.

'Free.teranews.com' stopped posting anything from me to the news group. They didn't bother to tell
me why, what, when. I spent several days troubleshooting to finally tumble to the idea there was
nothing wrong with my NG setup. I signed on with giganews today. Thanx to Jon Elson and others for
the recommendation.

Because Jim is testing his posts into RCM

I know that, but if you can post into alt.test, the other groups
should work as well.

should work as well.

But -- he *can't*. He's with Verizon, which has dropped *all*
alt.* newsgroups, which would certainly include alt.test.

And that is *nasty*, setting followups to alt.test without
mentioning it in the article body. *He* can't post to alt.test, so that
would just die, but anyone who can will get flooded with auto-reply
messages, assuming that alt.test works like the other test groups in the
past. And spamers love to scrape addresses from there too.

Enjoy,
DoN.

misc.test works for me; I don't know if it will for Jim.
