Item 16 in the aioe.org FAQ says that "When a client tries to open

there a
setting somewhere to restrict the number of concurrent connections?
The default number of cached connections is 2:

You can change a pref, but not through the UI (there is UI for the IMAP
case, but not for NNTP). You need to go to about:config and set
mail.server.serverX.max_cached_connections accordingly, where X is the
number of your NNTP account (which you can determine by searching
about:config for "nntp" and looking at the entries that have
"mail.server.serverX.type" as the name scheme and "nntp" as a value).
Changed it from 2 to 1. Exited seamonkey, started it up again. Verified
that the change stuck, retested, and it still won't show messages.
Oh well, screw it, just signed up for an eternal september account,
and that
works.
Did anyone ever get nntp.aioe.org to work? I have my settings
configured for port 119 and security "none", but it prompts me for a
user name and password then fails to download anything. No error
messages, it just won't show the content of messages. It did seem to
download the headers some time back, but now they don't get updated
either.
nntp.aioe.org does not have accounts, so I'm not sure how to tell
Seamonkey to not try to log in.
I use: news.aioe.org without any problem.
