I have something to add to this discussion... something I never thought about until someone pointed it out. I have had this hack installed for at least a week and have never been able to get my posts out to Usenet. I just checked with my host and, sure enough, they have outgoing port 119 blocked! :ermm: To make matters worse, they refuse to open it up for my domain.

So, if anyone here is having problems with their posts not showing up, first thing I would do is check to see if your host is blocking outgoing port 119.

I'm screwed unless someone wants to code POP3 to NNTP or something to that effect. :ermm:

this sucks...

To those people who have this thing working, what hosts are you using? Mine is Lunarpages.
