| etpm@whidbey.com: Feb 08 08:48AM -0800 Greetings All, Altopia sent me an email telling me they will no longer be providing NNTP service. So I need a new one to continue to read the few newsgroups I still participate in. Looking online for reviews I read that some NNTP providers store posts for as long as 11 years. This might be a good thing as I was looking for a few posts on rec.crafts.metalworking that I'm sure I saw less than two years ago but don't seem to be available anymore, at least from Altopia. So, recs please? Thanks, Eric --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus |

I'm happy with eternal-september.org. It's completely free to register and use, and it has always seemed competently run. It does not carry any binary groups. Retention is claimed to be 160 days for the big-8 hierarchies, but all groups I've looked at have posts dating back at least a couple of years and often longer. If you need binary groups and/or longer retention times, Giganews advertises 17+ years retention for text groups and 3+ years for binary groups. I don't have personal experience with them, though.

FYI I just loaded up about 118,000 news headers from rec.crafts.metalworking and there seems to be readable items (not just headers) going back to around 2009 It will cost you nothing to look AT |

The steps were to look at the spark when it was cold and running well, then looking again after it crapped out. By running the car with the plug in the cylinder disconnected, you were pumping unburned fuel into the cat - which is why I worded it as I did. Pumping unburned gas into the cat is a fine way to melt it down in minutes. Hopefully this didn't happen. >>>"As the engine heated it began to falter." What began to falter?? The engine, the spark, both? |
