Hi Graeme,
AFAIK the Embarcadero NNTP mirror crashed permamently in Aug 2015 and
they told everyone to use their web interface instead. Blaimed it on
some database problems they could not fix.
Then they thoroughly crashed the web forum that was mirrored to NNTP
and replaced it with a new web "forum" that is next to unusable....

So I finally stopped using it, I can still get hold of Remy L through
the Atozed forum if I have Indy questions:

Not a high traffic place but it works, unfortunately it is only https
though....
