Need NewsServer help again!
Please give me some recommendations, both fee and non-fee news-servers.
Originally with Verizon, then Mozzarella (sp?) and finally Eternal-September. ET stopped working about a week ago and I am temporarily using nntp.aioe.org. Works OK, but, only carries about 3-5 days of history on most of the news groups. What are you guys using? Thanks, Ivan Vegvary |

Thanks, Ivan Vegvary htp://www.usenetserver.com They carry over a year's worth on RCM. The original ISP that I had (now long gone) provided service through them and I've continued with an individual account due to their reliability. If you're looking for (near)free, individual.net (aka "the german server") offers a good service for pennies and there are others that charge only a setup fee. Most of these "throttle" their feeds by limiting the number of connections... |

Eternal September is working fine for me, so it's something at your end - I
also have a Teranews account, those two seem fine "Ivan Vegvary" wrote in message ... Please give me some recommendations, both fee and non-fee news-servers.

Here is their web site http://www.eternal-september.org/ser...hp?language=en wherein they do show that they were down. They show down on November 17, however, I have tried for the next four days thereafter with no luck. Will try right now. Ivan Vegvary |

Okay, my mistake. They site was down, and upon trying to diagnose I removed
the newsgroup and tried to log on again. Using Windows Vista, and when I right click on the news group, one of my options are "Newsgroups...". Clicking on this selection I merely have gotten a set of about 20± sites only, all of them related to et...-sep, and not very current. Only now did I see that there is also a "Reset List" options which gives me all the newsgroups I could ever want. Thanks everybody for your attention. Ivan Vegvary "Bob La Londe" wrote in message ...

I'm still on Eternal-September.org; a few days ago I had a glitch in that a couple of my posts got queued, but I just figured it was local or a traffic jam, and tried again later, and all was well. I _do_ wonder where they get their money, however; maybe some rich benefactor. Cheers! Rich |
