Had a strange problem where AmigaNOS crashed the machine after receiving a
mail message. Took me about 2 days to work out what was wrong, but it turns
out to have been caused by me having too many

nntp addserver 158.152.1.65 2400 demon.*
nntp addserver 158.152.1.65 2400 local.*
nntp addserver 158.152.1.65 2400 uk.telecom
nntp addserver 158.152.1.65 2400 comp.sys.amiga.datacomm
nntp addserver 158.152.1.65 2400 comp.sys.novell
nntp addserver 158.152.1.65 2400 alt.comp.novell
...etc

lines in my nos-startup file. I deleted a few, and everything returned to
normal.

Just thought I'd warn other AmigaNOS users. :-)

Regards,

Steve.
