Hi,

what's up with the news server? My reader can't connect since yesterday evening (MESZ, UTC+2). Telnetting gives:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ telnet news.postgresql.org nntp
Trying 200.46.204.72...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused

A note about my current NNTP experience: I'm just about to switch back to emails again because it seems more convenient to have it all in one IMAP account with multiple folders. Especially when hopping between different machines I've noticed it's better to use IMAP, which stores what I have read on the server. The downside of course is having all the mails on the server and having huge IMAP folders (i.e. for -hackers).

Is there something that stores flags (seen, responded, important, etc..) for newsgroups on the server? Probably a NNTP to IMAP gateway, that would at least solve problem no. 1 above...

Regards

Markus
