Still trying with Thunderbird Newsreader
Okay, someone... tell me if you can read this message. (I'm really not
trying to mess with your heads when it comes to newsreaders.) I'm still not having any luck getting it to download ANY messages. It doesn't make any sense. I can read other ng's just fine. Absolutely blank when it comes to reading anything from this ng. Perhaps if someone replies I'll be able to view other posts. Jill |

Jill No one has replied but I still can't get the blasted program to d/l *any* posts from this particular ng. I've run repair on the folder, unsubscribed and re subscribed. It's stupid. I can read and post to other ngs without any problems. I give up. OB Food: Pan fried 6 strips of bacon (I'm a fiend for bacon), then added those sliced canned potatoes and fried them in the drippings. Yum! In the same skillet I then cooked two eggs over medium. Not exactly breakfast time here but who cares what you call it? The leftover potatoes will be re-crisped to accompany a cheeseburger for dinner. Jill |

Jill,
Might I suggest that you delete this newsgroup and then re-add it to TB? Since many of us don't have the problems you seems to have (I just got an update to TB before logging in here) perhaps the problem is with your news server and not the newsreader. Who are you using as a news server? -- Janet Wilder Way-the-heck-south Texas Spelling doesn't count. Cooking does. |

Your time says 10:46am Thanks! But I still can't use T-Bird to read or reply to any existing messages from *this* ng. It simply refuses to show them to me. It sucks. Jill |

Eternal September is currently having problems with connections from Tbird, if there is any effort to use SSL. It seems that a security certificate expired, and Tbird did not make any effort to download a new version of that certificate. Robert Miles |

I have ES as my backup, not that one really needs a backup with NIN. I wonder whether what you say is also true of (related) Seamonkey. |

Got the port and other info I'll need to add that? Also, is it free? NIN isn't but it's a cheap annual amount and they usually have very good support. Of course they're in Berlin so I don't know when they're available. Jill |

I noticed, though, that when you posted a follow-up to yourself, it did *not* show markers for quoted text (same problem the WLM causes, and I think it was one of the reasons you are trying TB). I gave up on TB long ago. MaryL |
