Re: Seems my newsserver is fritzing also

Sorry for the double posting, but I had to hit send twice before it went
through, but apparently the newserver just wasn't acknologeing the posts,
and cancel article doesn't seem to be working for some strange reason.
Probably because I don't have a clue how to use it in Newswatcher, but it
might be because of the fake address.


Checking the headers shows you are using the same company I am (different city though). The news servers for the last couple of weeks are terrible. In order to download binaries I have to use one out of Toronto. The one which is supposed to be in Winnipeg gets half way through and freezes. This means I have to restart the program. This applies to text groups including this one as well. I had to get Mozilla to look at the list twice.
