I'm having trouble getting through.

Now that you say that, I remember having the exact same problem on
earthlink, twice.

and I kept giving it and getting no where.
Anyway I'm back now and everything is working fine again.

Mmmmmm, and I have had a couple of little hiccups since then, but it
seems to have settled down. It's a little strange.

I'm running Linux so I'm pretty sure it's not my machine causing the
problem. My ISP changed addresses for the usenet server. The old one
was linked to the same address, (there are probably many ISP using the
same serveer), and the guy helping my at my ISP said there's no telling
how many sites thhe messages went to before they got to their
destination. I bet it was using authentication before, but then it
changed and suddenly my authentication was failing, but only
intermittently, (most of the time). When I changed the address to the
new official one for the server and removed the authentication it
started working, then the next day stopped again and then corrected
itself. It's going fine ever since, but it's very suspicious. I
wonder who's monkeying around with the server connection and why.

That's what caused my problems, too - my ISP changed addresses for the
usenet server - but I still had to delete my setup and set it up again
to receive 'em.
