what's happened

What's happened to the NG? i've got back from holiays expecting to see loads
of queries to peruse and when syncronising my account there is nothing
here..........please help

 

So others who see your question know:

The messages were migrated to a new server.

http://discussion.autodesk.com/nntp.htm

NNTP Content Refresh
During the switch from our old discussion groups infrastructure
to our
new one all of the news article numbers were reset. This reset
was
unavoidable. As a result, some newsreader clients will require
that you
re-subscribe to all newsgroups in order to receive new articles.

To do this in Outlook Express:
- Right-click on the discussion group
- Select Properties
- Then select the Local File tab
- Then select Reset

To do this in Netscape:
- Delete the discussion.autodesk.com server from the list of
newsgroup
servers
- Clear cache
- Delete the .rc file
- Re-subscribe to discussion.autodesk.com and chosen newsgroups

Anne,

FWIW, I don't think the web-side and the ng-side are talking too well,
either. I left a post regarding that in the test ng, but I don't know if
anyone saw it. I see replies to messages with no original question popping
up all the time, and I have done a complete reset twice of OE6. I suspect
the web-side as many of the replies don't have a quote-back, which makes it
even worse.
