Demon news

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...

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.

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!

I can only see this message and one spam message for trainers. I thought
activity was a bit thin. I'm on Demon.

Hmmm... I just did a newsgroup database rebuild and now I've got my two
posts...

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.

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.

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

Hi Demon users,
Yes, I have had trouble with Demon posts for some time now, especially
e-mail, which I cannot receive after 6pm! Some news posts have gone
missing also, usually on alt.binaries. pictures.astro. which used to be
very reliable.
I have contacted the Demon help desk which assures me that there are no
problems at their end but gives no help at my end!
This wouldn't be something to do with the proposed take-over of Thus
would it?

Possibly (ie the takeover) as some ISPs are being urged to drop
usenet completely (mainly due to illegal material in the .bin groups),
or so I read recently. Google 'Cuomo usenet'.
