Hello again, and thanks again.

Not sure .. but the way I understood it was that when you do reach some
threshold that your download speed was decreased - to something more
like dialup speed .. 96k?

I have tried them all.. That was one of the first things I did try.
Server requires autherization and is checked off - username/pw, and
always has been.

Tools, News Servers - connection limit is set to 3 (has been). Tried
changing
2, 4, ... nothing.
They did say that they would contact me 24 - 48 hours and hopefully
this isn't just "the brush off". In the mean time I will compose
excerpts from suggestions you've all passed on into a file and send it
to the person who contacts me.
Your suggestions sound more in nature of the problem than the stuff they've
fed me thus far. Worst case - I move my email to Embarq and find a news
server
elsewhere.
I will surely post more when they "call me in 24 - 48 hors".
Thanks again y'all..
Paul
