I do have rec. ponds on my computer through my Internet Service Provider,
but my friend, who is with Alltel Internet is not able to subscribe to
newsgroups.

Does anyone know how she can subscribe to our newsgroup???

Thanks------

From any web browser you can use:

http://groups.google.com/groups?q=re...btnG=Google+Se
arch

or just

http://groups.google.com/

and type in rec.ponds

However Alltel Internet (alltel.net) does have newsgroups. Here is what
their website says:

Newsgroups are a method of receiving advice, asking for opinions, or
chatting by e-mail about a variety of topics with a large cross-section
of people without having to enter a chat room or compromise your email
address. These ""message boards"" are run by USENET, a worldwide bank of
connected computers that transmit these messages to newsgroups. The
advantage of newsgroups is that they are organized by subject and
contained in a separate mailbox, leaving your own mailbox clutter free.
You can read messages, send messages, or reply to other's messages.
ALLTEL Internet subscribes to USENET which can possibly have a
readership of 1 million.

If your friend has a netnews reader set it to:

News server: news.alltel.net

Hi Stephen,

Download a news reader such as Agent Forte. It's free and has some
good features including kill file and cross post checking
capabilities.

All the best,
