cannot connect to Cox news server
Suddenly, since 2 days, I am unable to send or receive to Cox's news
servers. I am a Cox hi speed Internet subscriber and have several subscribed newsgroups on news.east.cox.net. Without my having changed anything on my side I am suddenly unable to contact any of them. Cox "support" insists there are no reported problems on their news servers. - Internet access works fine. - Email to and back from my cox mailbox works fine. - Other newsgroups (like this one) work fine. The error message is "Outlook Express could not post your message. Account: 'news.east.cox.net'. Server: 'news.east.cox.net'. Protocol: NNTP, server Response: '502 Maximum number of connections reached. (newsfe 12.iad) (Tomado v1.2.6.556-2). Port: 119, Secure(SSL): No. Server error: 502, Error Number 0x800CCCAO" 1) Any suggestions? 2) Any free news servers I can use in the meanwhile? Thanks. Jeff

Try setting up a new Identity and then add the cox server and see if that
works in the different identity. steve wrote in message ... Suddenly, since 2 days, I am unable to send or receive to Cox's news servers.

cannot connect to Cox news server
Does the behavior persist at all hours (e.g., 4:00 AM; 10:00 AM; 1:00 PM)?

cannot connect to Cox news server
Yes, it is always present. Searching on Google groups, it seems this is a
problem that has afflicted Cox in the past too and took forever to fix. Now that I found a free news server that gives me my newsgroups I gave up on Cox's news servers and am just using the free one.
