Am I the only person out here in the world using Tp5.0 and having no problems? Mine works, it's stable, and is quick and convenient. I've just moved my Management (she who must be obeyed) to a named account on NTLWorld for which she must use Outlook Express - and she does nothing but moan and ask to go back on Tp as 'it was so easy and straightforward to use.' (Yes I know she can use Tp as I have a licenced copy, but that causes too much confusion with my Demon account.) -- Andrew W. Harrogate, UK woody@tangon.demon.co.uk

The problem is that, for my own purposes I read different newsgroups on Demon and NTL. AFAICT Tp cannot differentiate between sources so will pull newsgroup info from either one. Also, when I tried, I could find no way to make Tp steer my outgoing mail to the preferred mail host as I use different aliases on each. Now I'll go have a look! -- Andrew W.

You configure the source of each newsgroup, and it will be collected from one and only one source. -- Robert Living in interesting times

This should not normally occur with TP6. You can allocate which news servers (and POP3 servers) are accessed when connecting to any ISP. You can, for example have the Demon server only active when logged in to Demon, the NTL one when logged in to NTL and cis.dfn.de available through all ISPs. Then there will be no error message because of a failed connection, TP won't attempt to make the connections which are certain to fail. -- John Underwood Use the Reply To: address for the next 30 days After that write to john@the-underwoods.org.uk Do not send anything to the From: address
