Failed Login For Server / Too Many Connections

Since upgrading to 1.0 I've noticed a new error constantly showing up for my block account at Cheapnews. I continuously get "failed login for server block.cheapnews.edu"

I went into my settings (where it's set to priority 1 behind my Usenetserver main account) and hit Test Server... "too many connections for user". I've always had this set to 24 (Per the cheapnews site saying supports 24 connections) but just for giggles I changed it to 12 and retested... same error. Changed it to 5 and retested - same result.

Finally set it back to 12 and left settings... this seems to be working (haven't seen the error in the last several minutes) but wondering what the heck is up. Is this just new communication of errors in 1.0 and I've probably always been going over, or is this potentially something new causing this issue in 1.0?

thanks!!

How many connections does your Cheapnews plan offer you?

And: probably better to wait 10 minutes if you get "too many connections".
