Just checking in

I do not know if this will show up.
My Isp has mega problems with their news server. It seems as if it as
totally broken down.

I am not getting any messages apart from other Demon users.
I am reading some on google.
My e-mail address works perfectly if you want to get in touch with me.

Here's hoping!
Hugs
Shirley

hi there Shirley! I'm now reading through google too, as my server
comcast.net is no longer offereing the newsgroup feeds. Google has
some interesting features, I must say.

big hugs to you my friend, hope you are having a good day.

For those having problems accessing newsgroups through their ISPs, try this
free newsfeed:

nntp.aioe.org

Just add it as a new account in your newsreader (in Outlook Express, click
on Tools, Accounts, News tab, add, etc.) Don't know how to add it in other
newsreaders -- I've heard that Mozilla Thunderbird is a good program but I'm
most familiar with Outlook Express.

I tried this earlier, and nntp.aioe.org has rec.crafts.beads, with messages
going back to 10/3/08 (my local ISP's newsfeed goes back to 6/18/04). Hope
this helps.

P.S. Shirley, hope this finds you well and doing some beading or other
crafts.

Hi Kathy.....

I have it on my OE but I do prefer Motzarella which is also free. Aioe
goes down at times, as do all news servers. Motzarella has a Help for
New Users ng if you are having trouble setting it up, or whatever. The
owner is extremely helpful.

Thanks, Heather. My favorite e-mail / newsreader program was Netscape, so I
keep looking for something as good. Will check out Motzarella.

Didn't know Aioe sometimes goes down. Would there be a better free choice?
Aioe was recommended on another newsgoup I regularly read.

Hi Kathy....I have Aioe and Motzarella on here as *read & write* news
readers. I have another one that is *read only* (freetext)

It seems that the freebies go down more often than those that are paid
for, but Motzarella seems to be the best. If and when it goes down I
switch to Aioe. Also, for some strange reason, Aioe deleted all posts
by a friend of mine on an ng. He has a rather common German last name,
so obviously there was some other person they were banning.

Another good one was also German but it costs money now.
*Individual.net* if memory serves me right. I used that one for eons.
I don't think it costs all that much but they had some difficulties in
getting monies from Canada and the US.

There is a website for free news servers and I will see if I still have
it. Sorry, but will look tomorrow.

Cheers....Heather

Years ago I used to run a news server. I might have to consider doing
it again.. and only carry this feed :-)
