I have the plus.net newsgroups service set up within Thunderbird.
I have not used it for a while.
It is asking me for my username and password to download messages from a new group but declines the username and password for my account.
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? Do you use your email address as the username or is it in a certain format?

Are you on a Plusnet connection? If so I'm wondering if you are on an IP address range that hasn't been given to giganews who run the service. If you are not on a fixed IP you could try a disconnect/reconnect.

This problem started about a week ago. It asks me for username and password, and doesn't take any notice of what I put in - just says it's invalid.
Any ideas ?
