Large Format News Group and Earthlink

[Brian Ellis]

Would anyone here who subscribes to the rec.photo.equipment.large-format newsgro up, and who also uses Earthstink (I mean Earthlink) as their ISP, tell me whethe r that news group has been dropped by Earthlink? It has disappeared from my list of Earthlink's available newsgroups though all other rec.photo newsgroups conti nue to be listed. My e mail inquiries to Earthlink have produced only useless ca nned responses and calling their customer support line is such agony that I do i t only in total desperation.

I wasn't on it but signed up no problem and I'm on earthlink...

I'm answering on Earthlink right now. My system won't work on UU.Net for these groups.

I have an independent ISP but for the past few days I have been having all sorts of problems with newsgroups being deleted and other online problems. Anybody have any idea what's going on?

I lost access to my newsgroups months ago.

In the while you can always read it at google.

Thanks to all who responded to my question. I gave up on getting anything meaningful from Earthlink by e mail and called tech support. After the usual plethora of recorded messages and long waits I finally reached a person and was advised to do what someone above suggested - unsubscribe to all newsgroups and then go through the subscription process again. That worked. I mention all this very off topic problem and solution just in case someone else might be having the same problem.
