{OT} mozilla email / news problem - all news messages on acf aredated June 2003

I just switched from OE to Mozilla (news) and when I subscribed to acf
and downloaded news messages, it only downloaded stuff from the month of
JUNE 2003. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

I haven't, but did you try rebooting and then downloading all messages
again?

Go back to OE.....
See, you can already tell it works better than Mozilla.

Did you try a different news server? May be, the one you are using, has
a flaw in his database that causes this effect.

Ah, Information. A good, too valuable these days, to give it away, just
so, at no cost.

Before you subscribed, did you go into settings for the news account and
look at server settings and offline & disk space?

Why not try unsubscribing, tweaking these settings and the re-subscribe
to acf.

done that. proved it was my ISP as Gabrielle has suggested. that sucks.

I wrote to Earthlink when things like that happened with me..turns out
someone there decided to put filters on the ng's... parental control
filters..and it wiped out half the headers. I guess they got reprimanded
but the damage was done.
