Car Forum / MINI / April 2006Newsgroup Account Failure
Hello folks, I haven't been on for a while as my broadband supplier, yes bloody Wanapoo is still giving me grief and after moving house, they still haven't sorted my account out and got BT to change my number yet, so i'm on dial-up at present, well until the 20th when I hope to be back on broadband. Anyway i'm sending this message via Google Groups as my Outlook Express account has stopped working. Well I've been using that "news/info.net" account as recommended, but now that's stopped working and all I get is an error message saying "502 you have no permission to talk. Goodbye. No server error. So it looks like i'm stuck with Google, unless there's something else I can do?

Goodbye. >No server error. Yep! It appears they have realised that lots of people are using their server free of charge. Time to find another. Well I can access this newsgroup fine via Google, but it's quicker via my Outlook Express account, so if anyone comes up with another server to use, please let me know? > Well I can access this newsgroup fine via Google, but it's quicker via > my Outlook Express account, so if anyone comes up with another server > to use, please let me know? Try using this ip as your newserver on outlook (dont use username or password) It has low retention but will keep you going! 222.185.245.245 I can't remember whos server it is but it does seem to hold a few odd groups! miniman Okay thanks i'll give that a go. Well the good news is it's allowing me to view newsgroups, but the bad news is it isn't allowing me to post any messages. :O( Go here http://www.cheap56k.com/free-newsgroups-usenet.php Sorted The Muffin Man > Hello folks, I haven't been on for a while as my broadband supplier, > yes bloody Wanapoo is still giving me grief and after moving house, [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > > Taffy ------------- Get FREE newsgroup access from http://www.cheap56k.com Okay giving that a whirl now and after inputing my user name and password (never had to do that before) it seems to be downloading the messages.
