All my newsgroups, not only this one, have old dates, no messages, dates are
screwed up all over page. Used to, newest posts were at bottom. Get next 300
headers does nothing. How can I reset these groups and get back to normal.
IP is roadrunner cable. Thanks, if anyone gets this

Get rid of Outhouse Excess. Install Thunderbird. What do you
expect from MS software anyhow?

If fiddling with OE doesn't help, your ISP's news server
might be malfunctioning.
