Thread: Question about OOL Newsgroup server?

  1. #1
    I am using Optimum Online's newsgroup server and I can't read the headers of some groups like a.b.boneless. They aren't even listed in the groups list but I can download from the groups just fine using NZBs?

    I dont use OOL my self but thats sounds odd that you cant see the groups but you can D/L from them using NZBs.
    I say learn to live with it or try a premium account, i think Easynews do a trial account you could use to do a test.

    what reader are you using? You can manually add it to the server list or to the groups you want to download headers from often.

    Boneless isn't available on OOL, for sure.

    I'd be careful dl'ing from them, when you try to connect it's on peer guardians list.

    Get a premium, that's what I was forced to do.
