Re: News Servers

Oh whoopee doo, permission denied errors again, maybe I shouldn't have cancelled my £11.99 a month claranews account.

Can't get any newsgroups on those 2 servers either and I really need the binaries so the text one is no good to me.

Oops got the connection set wrong thats why those wouldn't work, doh!!

Re: News Servers

Anyone know what causes this:
"Outlook Express could not post your message. Subject 'ignore_test_post', Account: 'news.ntlworld.com', Server: 'news.cache.cable.ntlworld.com', Protocol: NNTP, Server Response: '441 Posting failed', Port: 119, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 441, Error Number: 0x800CCCA9"
when I try to post to the news group? I've not used news servers for years since I was with demon when I was a lad. Sorry for jumping in on someone elses post, I'm just a chancer at heart.
