Thanks For the reply.
I have changed to a different newsgroup provider but still have the same
problem. It pulls all of the folders down into the Public Folders, but there
are no articles. Can anybody confirm the settings I should use when creating
the feed, or are there any services I need to be running on the server that
are maybe not running ?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
