Using free and pay account from same server possible ?

Post by witlof »

Hello,

Is there a possibility to use my two free (50 mb / day), and 1 payed account (time free download limit) with the same servername (www.atraweb.com) in a way that the free bandwith is used first and automatically switched to the "other" account at the same server ?


Thanks

Arno

you can add two accounts - the server itself and its ip (or you can add the second or even more accounts through defining other names with the server ip in the windows hosts file).

set the free account as message-id direct without downloading headers with higher server priority and mark it strict (properties->servers). also ensure that download limit triggering is activated (properties->general, exceeding download limit - non-zero/empty suspend interval).

then newspro will download bodies from the free account; as soon as the account has reached its download limit it will use the other account.
