A lot of downloads Fail

I started using Newsbin again (version 6) and am using Usenet server for downloading. I downloaded headers from the groups I want; but, when I try to download something, the download fails. Some do download; but, most do not.

I am not sure if it is the settings I have set or if this is normal. I remember a few years ago, I was able to download most posts, very few failed. Now I can only download a few.

Anyone else have this problem? If this is normal, then I will probably cancel my usenet account.

Thanks.

Well, I found the problem. It was a spam filter setting. All is good now. Thanks.

The spam filters are pretty good. Most of the time you don't want what it's filtering out.
