Mail was and is ok... as far as I can tell.
Newsgroup is fine now too.
Thanks Al.

It's been about 6 hours. Are you getting mail yet?

My ISP must periodically shut down for maintenance. It's not too

Not one post showed up in my newsreader this afternoon.
First person who sees this please let me know if it went
through... I'm thinking my ISP's news server is screwed today.
