Is there any way to increase the level of automation in Oasis. Currently 
it's so hard to get onto Demon's News Server I sit here for minutes on end 
pressing NNTP kick on F3 before (hopefully) getting on. This seems:

a)	like something which will shortly see me moving my account 
elsewhere if there's no improvement (is it lots of post-xmas newbies 
over-clogging the system or is the system just crap?)

b)	like something which an automatic detection of the failure 
response triggering an NNPT kick command would fix. Is this a possibility 
at present, or would the author like to consider this in a future release, 
cos I can't see this getting any easier at present.

It's getting so bad ATM that I find myself logging on at peak rate times, 
hoping not to get too many BIG e-mails, with the feeling that my time and 
sanity is worth spending the extra phone bill on. I find spending 10 
minutes failing to get a connection really pisses me off (that's when it's 
not engaged, which is also increasingly regular).

Oh happy day - I've now got to try again (one failed session ce soir) just 
to get this posted up!!
