Getting Articles from Newsgroups

Postby eclapwannabe » Fri Aug 17, 2018 8:22 pm

I just added a new 500gb block account from UE.
They carry a few more groups than Cubenet.

I am trying to download the headers from a "new" group but the download process never starts.
What am I doing wrong.
I usually just click on the newsgroup name and add it to my list.
I then click on the name of the group and it starts downloading the headers.
But today nothing is happening.

What do you see in the logging tab?

Are they going to the download list?

I screwed up when I clicked on copy settings from other server. I copied the wrong address
I just deleted account information and started anew. it finally downloaded headers.
