Hi guys,

Is anyone else using Demon having problems receiving posts from this
newsgroup? It has been about four weeks since I last received any
threads via Demon and finally got around to sending a test message.
Having not received the test thread I have unsubscribed and
re-subscribed seeing if that would unblock the pipes... but no...

There are a couple of dozen threads visible from here for the past
month(via Teranews). I have aggressive killfiles against Chinese copy
watch, Guchi fashion spam so I can't be sure about total traffic volumes.

Most recent one NLCs, moon & pleiades by Peter Lawrence.

From accessing groups on Google I can see my test thread and that the
newsgroup is still active... so I am now wondering what I can now do to
improve matters... I could access Google Groups as a last resort of
cause but I would prefer to keep reading threads in my familiar
platform of Turnpike.

Worth moaning in demon.service or TP support I suppose. Or add a
randomly chosen free access readonly newserver for the misisng groups?

Worth checking you haven't got a kill file rule zapping them.

My other newsgroups appear to be receiving threads normally.

My morning routine, along with coffee, is perusing uk.sci.astronomy,
along with uk.sci.weather... and I miss it.. please help Obiwan!

Demons newservers used to be reliable once upon a time...

Regards,
Martin Brown
