I use SeaMonkey 2.53.21 on a Debian 12.8 system.
My USENET connection is news.eternal-september.org port 119.
I used it earlier today without problem.
Now it's asking for a new password.
As a trouble shooting 1st step I went to
http://www.eternal-september.org/index.php?showpage=recoverp&language=en
and entered my email address.
I got a return email with the expected UserID and password.
What do I do now?
TIA
I'm using
news.eternal-september.org port 563
for SSL connections. Seems to be working.
They also reported (via eternal-september.support) today:
"Authentication server became unresponsive due to a network problem
that is
currently being investigated. Back to normal now."
People reported issues connecting with some clients.

Thank you.
About an hour and half ago it seemed to be sort of working.
It was still was asking for a new password but I succeeded in making a
test post to misc.test ;/
I'll see if things are better tomorrow.
I'm still getting requests for a new password but am retrieving messages
and am able to post. I have asked for further troubleshooting
suggestions on eternal-september.support .
