Hello,
So, I use to get free read only access to nntp, I'm not sure the site cared, but when they do, it's easy to just find another nntp site to read gentoo-user and gentoo-dev via nntp. I like the fact that that way, when something new is posted, that thread, no matter the original start date, pops back up to the top of the stack (most recent). Gmane is also used for posting, but it defaults to the original thread posting date for anchoring the thread, chronologically. But now, with the recent update of thunderbird, the nntp sites no longer update postings and I'm too old, stupid and lazy to guess why. Any guidance would be appreciated on what changed within thunderbird to now block this nntp-siphon. Maybe certificates/authorizations are being forced by default with thunderbird now? The offending version of thunderbird is :: mail-client/thunderbird-38.8.0 - 05/12/2016 (per elogv) I guess I could look myself into thunderbird on our github, if I were more adept at git..... I run the local network so nothing changed with the bridges, filters and routing. (yea, yea, yea, I know the gentoo archives should be tapped, but that's tool easy?) curiously, James
