| Is anyone running a nntp server that would allow me an account to use it? I
just switched to Qwest DSL w/MSN and it seems that MSN doesn't support
newsgroups. The only free nntp servers that I can find don't allow posting.
However, i'm pretty active on the comp.sys.apple2.* groups and the
alt.games.thief-dark-project group. Going through withdrawls not having
access to these groups... Someone has suggested Google Groups, but I'm not
keen on web based email or newsgroups...
