Me, for a couple weeks, but my Charter contractor is doing pretty well, so I
only tried to reset it once without success, and have not needed to go back
to try again.
My error said something like server rejected too many posts, or something
like that. What was the problem with you?

I haven't tried them in a long time, but I just checked and they seem to be
down. There are other free/cheap options for Usenet servers and there is no
need to confine yourself to one. Check my sig file.

Nothing personal, but if you are posting through Google Groups I may not receive
your message. Google refuses to control the flood of spam messages originating
in their system, so on any given day I may or may not have Google blocked. Try
a real NNTP server & news reader program and you will never go back. All you
need is access to an NNTP server (AKA "news server") and a news reader program.
You probably already have a news reader program in your computer (Hint: Outlook
Express). Assuming that your Usenet needs are modest, use
http://news.aioe.org/ and/or http://www.motzarella.org/ for free, and/or
http://www.teranews.com/ for a one-time $3.95 setup fee. Newsguy,
http://www.newsguy.com/ offers a variety of reasonably priced services. If you
wish to experiment with real Usenet access, they will give you a free 2-day
trial account.

Yep...I spoke too soon. It was up again for a very short time.
I'm using Martin Hotze's server for access to rec.aviation.*
