[Informatics] informatics Digest, Vol 28, Issue 7

Wed Apr 25 07:02:03 EDT 2018

Hi,
The tool that I use to access the newsgroups (Thunderbird) has stopped
working and I get the following error:
A News (NNTP) error occurred: Cannot connect to NNTP server
150.101.166.75  (150.101.166.75:119), connect error 10060

If anyone has any advice about what I am doing wrong please let me know. I
have the following location:
news://news.edulists.com.au:119/local.it.informatics

Can you also please remind me if I can access the webinar at any time or I
have to be there at a certain time.

by the way, you have to send your response to: david.thomas2 at rmit.edu.au
David.
