I can't read the beta newsgroup anymore. It asks for a name/password now and mine don't work like they do for posting to the other newsgroups.

Hmm... Maybe Roland's gotten a few changes made in case he needs them for the closed beta of 3.1... I'll ask him if that's what's up or if there's something else going on.

no not maintenenace... everyone can read the bet ng, but only beta testers
can post... it seems it took a while to figure out....

I'm getting some weird action with the beta NG as well. It doesn't ask
for a password, but it says that there are unread messages in it. (This
is using Netscape's newsreader, btw) When I click on "beta", however, no
messages appear, (I have it set to show only threads that have unread
messages in them) but "beta" still remains bold. (meaning there are
unread messages in it) When I click out of the NGs (i.e. email section)
and click on "beta" again, still no messages appear, but "beta" becomes
non-bold. (signifying no unread messages)

Guess not *everyone* can read the beta NG... any ideas as to what's
going on here?

Hi, this might be a Netscape problem. Yesterday while testing the new
settings, some test messages were posted, which are now deleted. Those may
still be 'in the cache' somewhere... :)

Hmm... Now I'm getting "480 Permission denied" when trying to access the newsgroups.
