who cant get ABPO,TRY THIS!!!
I had been looking for a server which had ABPO for months which was low
cost, I found Tera news.www.teranews.com which cost a one off set-up fee of 3.95 dollars for 50 mb downloads a day or there are other packages.I use the basic package everyday and have been able to get all the pictures/posts.As I am in the UK I am a bit reluctant to pay for something in dollars,and thought it was to good to be true you know what I mean with the net and handing over money!!I paid the fee by card they sent me a email with my password etc ,I was up and running in about 15 minutes .They did only take 3.95 dollars from my account and I haven't looked back since, I no longer think what I am missing when I see posts on RGO with reference to ABPO.So anyone getting frustrated because you cant get ABPO give it a go . ps I am not from teranews,just chuffed to bits with there server giving me ABPO & lots of others!

Isn't it interesting what kind of stuff one can find out looking at newsgroup archives and statistics :-) Joanna Well, I guess I had better get in here before Joanna posts my social security number or something. ;-) I use the Adelphia news server because Adelphia is my ISP. I do continue to have a little 3 hour a month AOL account mainly so other family members can keep their old e-mail addresses. I use the AOL address to keep spam away from my Adelphia address. The AOL address does work but I have it set to only receive mail from people on my list. That completely stops spam there but also excludes people not on my list (yet). To answer Elinor's question, I think you can get the pictures on ABPO via AOL. I looked into it once because AOL started offering ABPO before Adelphia did. You can't get the pictures if you read the messages off line. I used to read RGO by downloading the messages so I could read them later. If you do that, and then read them from your "filing cabinet", you will not get pictures. Find the other way to read newsgroups, where you read them directly online. (I didn't dare do that since I only pay for the 3 hours a month.) If you don't figure it out after a short while, let me know and I will go into AOL and figure it out. You need to hurry because I just posted 5 pictures on ABPO tonight. ;-) Steve |
