Thanks for that - I was wondering the same!

Contacted my hosts:

Quote:

you cannot import these feeds directly to your vbulleting installation on the server. You may need to setup a local copy and then import the mysql to the server.

Damn it!

Anyone know how to setup a local copy and then import the mysql to the server?

thanks,
Dave

Thinking about it, do I realy need my hosts server to have port 119 open?

Surely I am connecting to the selected SERVER - news server port 119!!

A general newsreader does not use 119 on your own PC -just connects to the news servers port 119?

or am I getting it wrong??

But.... I have tried loads of servers even the microsoft one suggested - still no connection!! maybe I am wrong!

Help.....

As a client connects to a server.

There's some read-only servers to try with. Or are you looking for servers that allows both read and post?

Then ubuntu-geek said:

You might make sure your server has the nntp port open. It appears that could be the issue.

So I spoke with my host who said that port 119 is blocked.
Then I thought, surely this add-on is not talking thro my host servers port 119 - but connecting to the selected new servers port 119. So I would not need to have port 119 open on my host? Maybe I am wrong?

Just need to get it working!

Thanks again TMM-TT:)

No, as long as the outgoing port 119 is not blocked, it should work fine. Try connect to news.tornevall.net at that port and see what answer you get.

By the way - buying accounts can be a bit "bad", so be careful with the choice there. :)
Normally newsproviders only allows one user per account which means that sharing such account with others may not be allowed.

Does anyone know if attachments work with mailing lists?

Also, can someone please attach functions_image.php? I'd like to try to get this working. Thanks!

My outgoing emails have their extra carraige returns/line breaks snipped. Does anybody know where I can fix this?
