Re: Ping Alex

That's why I wrote Alex. There has to be a way to access the 3 newsgroups
I'm active in. If we have to change servers, then so be it! Nanny

I hope you can get this figured out so you don't loose your groups. I know
how it is, this is our life line.

I am nuts about you.

Hello Alex. How are you and Sarah doing? I hope well, and not suffering
from the heat wave that is in many places right now.

I'm trying to reach you through ASA, as I cannot send or receive mail at
the present time. In fact, my husband has spent several frustrating
hours the past few days trying to "fix" the problem, including calling
the Server (Roadrunner) and talking to them for 1/2 hour. Still no
service. About 6 months ago, my husband put everything on the Time Warner
Cable company plan, and we've had nothing but trouble since then. I'm
about ready to tear out my hair, but don't want to lose what I already
have. :-)

I don't want to impose on you, yet I know how capable and willing you
have been in the past in getting your computer "family" out of sticky
predicaments. I have Outlook Express. Right now my husband has figured
out a way to access my E-mail messages through a Roadrunner link. Only
thing is that I can't receive or send any E-mails.

I'm handicapped in that I don't know much of anything concerning
technical logistics, so it's hard for me to verbalize questions.
However, for starters, my hubby said I could ask you this question:
Fact: Roadrunner is going to stop providing newsgroups, at least that's
the information he has. So, how can I access the 3 newsgroups I'm on when
that happens? They are my support line! They are the reason I'm here.

I hate the mess-up with Cable set-up. Lots of local people are disgusted
and frustrated with Time Warner Cable right now, per the letters to the
Editor of our local newspaper. My husband changed servers to save money
and to avoid high telephone bills, and get away from the dial-up
connection.

What server would you recommend? You don't know how much we would
appreciate some guidance and counsel at this point. I'd even pay you
something for your advice or contribute to a charity of your choice. If
lawyers receive payment for their services, why not someone like you? I
think I know what you'll say, but the offer is there nonetheless. If you
have any questions pertaining to our predicament, I'll let my hubby
answer them. Thank you so much, Alex, for any help you can offer! Nanny
