Is news.neodome.net permanently silent for all?

[Mickey]

Have had several days where it is not possible to connect to the read
only news server at news.neodome.net on port 119. Has anybody else
failed to communicate with neodome.net?

I hadn't noticed that but yes, no connections since 26 Nov.

I just sent him an email, maybe he'll reply. Maybe he won't.

The last successful peering connection I have is:
Sep 26 03:40:02

Dead since then. I hope Neodome isn't, just the server.

No it is also a sewer.

Some call it uncensored speech.

I last pulled articles the evening of 2024-Sep-25. Nothing since
then. Agreed, hope the admin is okay.

Thanks for the feedback.

could be "need to know" . . . could be something else . . . guessing
that the neodome system administrator knows exactly what he/she/they
are doing . . . but that's only a guess . . . the neodome server has
been down for more than two weeks (~ 13 nov 2024 ?) . . . apart from
frell's mixmaster remailer, mix/yamn exit remailers (including frell
yamn) appear to post by default via m2n gateway "***@dizum.com"
(e.g., unchecking the m2n gateway option in omnimix proves the point)
