You're welcome.
Many ISPs are either dropping or sharply curtailing their Usenet
(newsgroups) coverage. I still subscribe to quite a few MS groups,
but many other newsgroups are overrun with spammers and
what is known as 'trolls'.

Hi Walt,
Go here http://www.motzarella.org/ it is a free news server, but you have to
register, and they send you the set up instructions by email so use a real
address to register, then use a munged address in the account setup process.
Any problems, get back.
