If you are often hitting aioe's daily connection limit, perhaps it is time to try using the agent features of Gnus (info "(gnus) Gnus Unplugged"). With the Gnus agent, you can slurp up a large number of articles at one time for local reading, thus using fewer connections. Aioe seems to like its users to do this (http://aioe.org/index.php?terms-of-use#d4): > 4.

The Gnus agent is a bit like a mini-suck, downloading stuff to `gnus-directory' instead of to the news spool of a "real" local news server like leafnode. To try using the agent, set it up with J c from the *Group* buffer, then slurp up a bunch of articles with J s, and go into Unplugged mode (J j). Then you can read all the subscribed articles at your leisure without incurring new connections on aioe's limit, and replies/posts will be queued until you re-engage Plugged mode and can send them. I find this pretty useful for reducing distraction temptations from new email, too. :-| Hope that helps, WGG -- I use grml (http://grml.org/)
