Problems with rec.woodworking server?

Thunderbird asks me how many headers I wanted. I knew I wanted back to

3/22. I said 500, not enough, deleted them again, said 1000, still not enough, 1500 was just right... In other words, its your reader that controls how many headers you get, not Supernews. Motzarella keeps about 70 days of messages, you can get them all, or a specific number of them if you use Thunderbird or Netscape. Supernews, Motzarella, Giganews just keep x number of messages, or x days of messages. You get what you ask for or rather, your reader gets what it asks for...

Tell me about it! At the same time this was happening, I was having trouble with my email. Finally I decided to look into it, went to the comcast support site, log on, do all sorts of crap and finally get to a thing for on line chat... click on that, cause it usually is faster than using the phone... press 1for Prussian, 2for Spanish, 3for english... 3 ....1for telephone, 2for Cable TV, 3for HS internet...3... and on and on and on.

So of course, the on line CHAT doesn't work, so, on to the phone...

10 minutes answering questions and the automated answer crap tells me to try going to the internet, a ton more fussing around, and finally, and still w/o talking to a human being, the voice male bitch says their is a longer than normal waiting time to talk to a person because they are experiencing EMAIL PROBLEMS... Thats ALL I wanted to know...sheese.

The email problem fixed itself eventually, but not the motzarella thingee. Actually, this same thing must have happened in January, because I found the fix, again, from postings in January...

Yes, must have been that new virus supposed to hit on 4/1. Screwed up comcast email as well:-)

That's pretty much how I do it, still somewhat a pain however.

I know that, the problem is knowing what the magic amount to get is.
