Up until 2 nights ago, OE worked fine when connecting to
my newsgroup server. Then it failed. The error message
said it couldn't connect to the server.

I tried deleting the newsgroup server and reinstalling.
When trying to download the newsgroup list, these are the
details of the error message:

480 Authentication required for command

Configuration:
   Account: news.frii.com
   Server: news.frii.com
   Protocol: NNTP
   Port: 119
   Secure(SSL): 0
   Error Number: 480
   Code: 800ccca2

You used to be able to delete and then reinstall OE, but
that doesn't seem to be the case these days. :-(

Anyone have an idea as to where to look for the problem?

Thanks.
