You may not understand the purpose of the utility, which is to allow
anonymous posting through news servers other than the one that
newsanon.yi.org normally uses.
For example, news.grc.com.
It doesn't make any difference if the news server has its own private
hierarchy, or if it has the usual usenet hierarchy.
I'm willing to be corrected, but as far as I can tell, news.grc.com
requires authentication to post to.
Again, the utility is for 'posting' to the newsgroups, not 'reading' of
them.
I hope that clears things up a bit.
