Re: NNTP code for group



You can use any nntp server to download the group.  Well, maybe not any one,
but most will carry groups like this.  For example:

news.msn.com is probably a good one for you to use, since you've got an msn
e-mail address.  I use shawnews.ed.shawcable.net, which may or may not work
for you, since you're not in their domain.  But your best bet, unless you
want to pay for a news server, is to use the one provided to you by your
ISP.

BTW, if you don't like spam in your e-mail, don't use your real e-mail
address when you configure your news software.
