Re: Re: Treo650 Yanoff - read online school newsgroups

Thanks for the notes, yes I think you are right.  I
tried the following suggestions and all I got was
"read errors()" messages.

These are on a acadaffairs.wintu.edu server that
requires user id and password... I access the
newsgroups from OE express... multiple newsgroups.

Tried to test the server and got the above error
message.

Tried to poll ng, using the above server, got, "cannot
open raw internet socket!"

I will assume I need to go to the 700w (which I don't
want to!!) and use OE on that device :(

Thanks for your help
