After switching from mozarella, it worked for several days. Now I can't get
any downloads. Anyone else having the same problem?
My alternate is via google, but I'd rather use Outlook Express.

So far, Judy, mine is working fine. We will be out of town for the weekend
(picking up 5 year old DGD for a 2 week visit) so guess I will find out if
it continues to work when we get back.

So far, so good on mine. Actually, I think I'm seeing more postings than I
was before.

I too am not having any problem, although several days after switching to
eternal-September, I was unable to get through. I restarted the computer,
thinking that would help, which it did not. I gave up for the day, and used
Google. The next day, for whatever reason, it worked just fine, and has
been ever since.

First - I went to the eternal-september website - and found that they had to
shut down for a while - some technical problem. Then, I found (after they
were "back up" again) that I still couldn't get messages... so,
Second - I sent an email describing what I'd done to connect and got the
following msg. -- Voila!!! Success!
So --- in case any one else is having problems: here is the quick reply they
sent me: (See bottom paragraph!)

Well, it explicitly said in the notification mail that you should
create a new server setup in your client rather than changing
the server name in your Motzarella account. Did you do that?
(ME-Judy:"Yes")

Are you able to connect to the server?
If you use Outlook Express or Windows Mail,
please right-click on the group name, select "Properties",
go to the "Local File" tab and click on the "Reset" button.
