Unless i get this fixed i won't even be able to see the answer unless
someone emails me (Ace, help!) and clues me in to why i can get no messages
after Sept 30. I even reset the newsreader, deleting all headers and
message and downloaded fresh info and 9/30/9PM is the latest i get.... Am
working on an Exchange 2003 install and really would like to be able to get
in... or is everything that quiet in the world? charlie
 
Ok, now i can finally see my message but i am still confused as to why all
news groups were not going past the 30th unless it was Microsoft doing it...

Hi Charlie! Nice to hear from you again.

I've also noticed similar issues with the newsservers here. I've seen where
I've refreshed the listing then posted a reply to a post that didn't appear
to have any responses, then refreshed again and found 4 replies pre-dating
my post. I believe it's due to the bombardment of the Swen worms trying to
post.

Cheers!

This is normal for Usenet. Messages don't propagate around the world (in
either direction, relative to onesself) instantly.
