Anyone here using cox.net and successfully setup their news servers? I get
an error when I try to retrieve the newsgroup list and looks like I get
maybe a tenth of the list. I get the "An unknown error has occurred"!
 
It is a known bug and is for any news server except Microsfts own server.
Should be fixed in the next build I suspect. They have already fixed it
internally I believe.

I'm having the same issue with COX.net. Reading further in the thread it
looks like it's a known bug. Nice. Saves me the effort of spending time on
this.

Go to tools, options and uncheck the option to use communities support
features. Now try and redownload your newsgroups. Its not a total fix but I
have seen it fix it once so it might work.
