Answer about Pan & Thunderbird: Attn. J.O. Aho & Moe Trin

Hi here is the answer from Giganews:

Thank you for contacting Giganews Technical Support!

Looking at your X-trace, it appears that your Thunderbird is not set
up to
authenticate through Giganews. Your Thunderbird is using
scnresearch.com

However, your ISP is using Giganews for its news feed. This is why
you're getting those two different messages.


To fix this problem, you need to go into your Thunderbird account and
set
it up to authenticate through Giganews.
