Hi Chris,

A few years ago I was one of your subscribers.  I still admire your 
devotion to privacy.

I've been with Newshosting for several years now.  Look at their web 
pages and you may see why.  If you could match their plans, including 
excellent completeness and their long (80-110 days) retention, I'd 
consider returning to you.  Note their secure accelerator.  They also 
have a web to news ('webnews') interface that allows me to check headers 
and get nzb files over a dialup connection.  I don't see webnews 
mentioned on their site right now, but it does exist.
