You can't if you use google groups, it's a binary newsgroup (one that has
pictures) and GG doesn't carry binary groups.


As an aside, I can never see posts from madgardener, is there anyone else
using this group(s) via Blueyonder who has the same trouble?

i'm not on blueyonder (i'm in the US) but i can't see her
posts either. they have to be blocked upstream from my NNTP
server because i *know* we don't block.

I'm with Tiscali and use "news.tiscali.co.uk" and that group hasn't been
added, whereas when I was with bt. (sorry can't remember the server) it was.
does anyone know a server that does and can bee accessed under Tiscali as my
ISP??

Binary groups are something of a luxury.
Blueyonder (my ISP) has binary access but most ISP's don't any more due to
the huge sizes of some (most) of the groups - groups like the DVD and
DVD.repost which get up to a hundred thousand films sent to it each week
tend to be something of a strain, and there's thousands of groups, this has
prompted most ISP's to drop binaries altogether and just carry text groups.
There are companies that offer binary news access, but they are not free,
Astraweb, Supernews etc..

That said, I don't know why people don't use tinypic more often, it's fast,
free and there's no signupos or anything else, If I could see MG's post, I
could put it up on tinypic but I can't...

this is disturbing to me...............alright, I tell you what. are you
saying you can't even see my TEXT messages???? what the hell?? or is it
just the binaries? if it's just the binaries, I can send you the pics and
you can post them onto tinypic. would that work? e-mail me at my addy
(it's what it says it is, I'm too old to be paranoid now) and I'll send you
a few, two at a time. I use Paint Shop Pro to downsize the size of them.

I looked at the photos and they're beautiful, thanks to mad gardener for
growing them and showing them. I wish I lived in a climate like Tennessee
where spring comes earlier!

Noticed this as soon as mg started posting to URG. I never get any of
her posts on Plusnet's server but I -can- see them using the freebie
readfreenews one.

Xananews (it's free) supports binary groups. AFAIK you can use it via
any UK isp.

No, but users of my isp have recently commented the absence of any
posts from Blueyonder-users. It appears there is some kind of upstream
problem affecting the propagation of Blueyonder posts to other servers.

I see all Madgardener's posts on Zimacs but it's possible that their
(enjoyable) length may be a problem to other newsreaders. Either,
because individuals have inadvertenyly set their software to reject
anything over a certain number of lines, or because their newsprovider
does the same at server level.

thanks Andrew. you should see my incredible first tree peony. due to the
extremely warm weather, three blossoms opened up this morning, one has
demised already but not before I discovered they had an incredible floral
scent! I never knew! (I'll post pictures from this morning before the heat
did in the first one :(
