Good thing I setup a Google Groops account so I could post from my Blackberry. Cox Cable is dumping their useNET servers as well, and sending out a notice with some kind of "special deel" for Giganews. -- Glennbo

Hopefully they will add the groops back in, even thought they are pretty limited in the number of posts they allow. -- Remove YourHeadFromYourAss to Reply by email ________ __ / ____/ /__ ____ ____ / /_ ____ / / __/ / _ \/ __ \/ __ \/ __ \/ __ \ / /_/ / / __/ / / / / / / /_/ / /_/ / \____/_/\___/_/ /_/_/ /_/_.___/\____/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Glennbo http://www.soundclick.com/glennbo Non-Linear Sound http://www.soundclick.com/jambits Hear My Music http://www.soundclick.com/ThePseudonyms

Both cakewalk groups are now back at aioe. I don't use that server very often, but it's nice to have it as a backup.

And Telesweet is still not usable -- so yes, thank you for getting our groups back on the alphabet server. We may be down to just cheezy and alphabet unless G'Bo can rustle us up some more free servers... (Google news is a lst resort for me) -- Sue Morton "Glennbo" > "Nil" >> They heard me!

They're very reliable - in the two years I've been with them I don't recall the service not being available. For me it's well worth the small cost. And I still have the big cheese and the little letters for backups.

I had telesweet as my "backup" server - but (as stated above) I see that that's not working anymore. I need a new "backup" ;-) -- =========== John Braner http://cdbaby.com/cd/JohnBraner http://www.soundclick.com/johnbraner

It's all coming back now - eternal-september used to be called mozerella didn't it? aioe hasne worked for me in ages - I gave up on that along time ago... So "cheesy" is the only free server that's working now? That's what I've been using, so I haven't noticed that nothing else is working... -- =========== John Braner http://cdbaby.com/cd/JohnBraner http://www.soundclick.com/johnbraner

I can get a Giganews account for $2.69 a month as a special deal, since Cox Cable is dumping their news server, but I also remember Terranews being a one time fee of five bucks or something. I think they are still around too. I'll have to look into individual.net as well. -- Remove YourHeadFromYourAss to Reply by email ________ __ / ____/ /__ ____ ____ / /_ ____ / / __/ / _ \/ __ \/ __ \/ __ \/ __ \ / /_/ / / __/ / / / / / / /_/ / /_/ / \____/_/\___/_/ /_/_/ /_/_.___/\____/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Glennbo http://www.soundclick.com/glennbo Non-Linear Sound http://www.soundclick.com/jambits Hear My Music http://www.soundclick.com/ThePseudonyms
