I use rtin with it, although the dates are screwed up because Tin can't
grok the timestamp portion of the header.

Hrm. I find that if I run rtin by itself, it connects with no issue. if
I run it rtin -A, it will ask for a user name & pass but will take
whatever input it's given and comes right up.
I'm also using a build from 2006, version 1.8.2. I wasn't aware there was
newer, so I should upgrade. Thanks. :)

This would be a good time to remind folks of
nntp.olduse.net. :)
I'm trying to connect to it, but it requires a login and
http://olduse.net/ doesn't seem to explain how to get a login.
