I remember seeing your name in a related thread when I did a search before posting! >I then reported it to my ISP, who was unable to replicate the fault >(or if they could, they wouldn't admit it -- eventually they closed Unless the ISP was purposely blocking Usenet packets, they wouldn't have any connection with the problem, I'm pretty sure. >the ticket and told me to report it to Astraweb. > >http://helpdesk.astraweb.com/ I just did that! I hope they can give me some answers and save me from long sessions with the NNTP protocol manual and the network packet analyzer Ethereal (now unfortunately renamed "Wireshark"). Actually Ethereal is pretty good at rendering various protocol packets into human-readable form, so maybe it wouldn't be too bad. >Here is a report by somebody else experiencing a similar, if not the >same, problem: > >http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/python/python/926636#926636 > >I believe his symptoms are different from mine because we are using >different news clients.

You've focussed the search even more closely on Astraweb! And the articles you've listed will be very handy for further investigation and verifying the solution once we have one. _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
