NEWSGET EMAIL NEWSFEEDS

If you cannot run NSAGET, or want more distance from the newsgroups
you are downloading, or you need to download a lot of newsgroups,
use this.

It is a subscription service that will send you a newsfeed, full or
partial, from any number of newsgroups.

To use the service, send an email to newsget@eelbash.org.

You will be sent a confirm email. Return that and you will be added
to the database.

- From then on you can request a newsgroup feed by sending an email to
newsget@eelbash.org. In the body of the message include:

x-newsgroups: some.newsgroup
x-from: joeblow@nowhere.com
OR
x-subject: some subject of interest.

For example:
x-newsgroups: alt.privacy
x-subject: tor

or

x-newsgroups: rec.arts.boats
x-from: joeboatman@boatsrus.com

or

x-newsgroups: rec.arts.bikes
x-from: @

This last gets you all messages in rec.arts.bikes.

You can subscribe to as many newsgroups as you want, including the
same newsgroup multiple times, downloading messages with any 'from'
headers or partial 'from' headers, or any subjects or partial
subjects.

There is no limit on that.

The limit is on the total bandwidth per 7 days, which is set, for
now, at 5 megs per subscriber. After that, your account is blocked
until the 7-day cycle begins again.

Do not use wildcards in selecting subject or 'from' header.

Retain upper case if headers you are selecting on have it.

You can specify either a subject or a from header in the email,
notboth.

The first feed you receive after signing up to a newsgroup will
contain messages from the latest 100 messages for that newsgroup.

Thereafter it will contain messages starting at the last
message + 1 of the previous feed.

I need to add a cancel facility. For now, email admin@eelbash.org if
you are subscribed but want to cancel.

Obviously, if you want anonymity, send your emails through remailers
and specify a nym as your 'from' address.

As always, use this at your own risk.
