Hi Franz, I wonder if you could help me as well. I've never
participated in a newsgroup before and am trying to do the same as
HedgeWytch - however everytime I try this I come up against the
'Internet Connection Wizard' which asks me to type the name of the
Internet News (NNTP) server my Internet service provider has given me -
do you know how I can find out what that is.

Which ISP?

You need to get the info from your ISP - it is probably on their website
somewhere in the help section, or phone or email them.

Ii is normally of something of the form:

new.isp_name.net
