Alternate ways to access the User to User Forums

Glad to hear it!!

Thanks!

Yes, it is now working for me too.

It's still hiccupping in the broswer this morning. It loads very slow until you get about half a download, then it just speeds up and pops into view. I'm on a T3 line so it's not ISP delay. Last night on my telephone modem it was really driving me nuts (not a very long drive, I know. Perhaps more like a putt!).

Thanks John. I'm so used to reading the forums offline that I miss it.

I have a call into the server folks to find out what's up with NNTP access this morning.

I have been reading these forums through MS Outlook Express set to adobeforums.com for a long time, but for the last day or so haven't been able to to get to them that way.

I am getting a message from Outlook Express that "an unknown request was received in response to a request for information from the news server 'adobeforums.com'.

I tried to remove the account and re- add it (remembering this happening once in the past) but that only results in the same mesage.

Does anyone know what happened or what to do to fix it? Thanks.

Dorothy, et al,

I've use newsreader for Adobe forums for better than a year. And as of today, I also can not get access.

Trust this will get fixed soon. Access via newsread is very nice.

Barry, they did a significant server upgrade today which may have affected things for you.

I don't have any real answers... but I can relieve a bit of anxiety anyway. It's likely not you.

Stay tuned, we'll very probably hear from other NR users.

Several days ago I signed on and registered in the forums for the first time. I then went to my newsreader and was able to configure it with the password and sign-in name to access the newsgroups at adobeforums.com. Had no problem for several days both reading and posting messages....but today the forum seems non-accessible from the newsreader. Being new I wasn't sure if this was just a coincidence and it is down for maintenance, a problem on my computer, or in fact you have shut it down permanently from newsreader access. Wonder if you could give me a clue.

Thanks

Margie, the Scripting forum is available as a newsgroup. It should be called "adobe.scripting.indesign" (it is a subforum of the scripting forum).
