I have been trying to figure out how to subscribe to these news services
through Outlook 2003.  I can't seem to find where I need to do it. . . When
I had Outlook 2000 (or Office 2000 rather) I had a separate news reader app.
. .

Any suggestions?   I guess I could just download Thunderbird from Mozilla. .

Subject: *** ADMIN: Some lists available on a private news server!

Folks:

As most of you know ... a number of the lists hosted by midrange.com are
gated to newsgroups by the gmane.org service.

A few lists hosted here I did not want gated to gmane.org's news server
because they have a very limited scope and reach.

As an alternative, I have made some of those lists available on a private
news server that I run.

Currently the only lists available on the private server are:

midrange-nontech
pctech
cpf0000

The news server host address is nntp.midrange.com, PORT 1199 (note the
non-standard port).  No authentication is necessary.

This news server is relatively new to me ... so there may be some glitches.
Please contact me via PRIVATE email if you encounter any oddities.

As with the gmane.org hosted newsgroups ... you still have to be subscribed
to the list in order to post ... but you can disable mail delivery if you
are going to use the news server exclusively.

PLEASE NOTE: This private news server does *NOT* encrypt email addresses
like gmane.org's servers do.

If you have any questions about the new service, feel free to contact me
privately.

david
