OT: Usenet/Outlook Express question

Posted by Mystified One on May 9, 2008, 11:59 am

My e-mail provider has decided to quit supporting its newsgroups. This was
a major reason I had stuck with them for this long, and I feel they really
don't want my money anymore.

Since I am leaving, I am looking for a new e-mail provider that also
supports Usenet. Anyone know of some good ones?

Thanks for your help.

You will be shopping for a new ISP, correct? Most ISPs provide POP3/SMTP
accounts.
Unless you do a lot of binary downloading, why not use a free UseNet server?

Here are a couple of links to get you started.

I have cable internet, so I don't need a new ISP. All I need is an e-mail
account and to be able to still view my newsgroups.

Try nntp.aioe.org or go to http://motzarella.org/ to sign up for one of
their free newsservers. You have to use a valid email address, but they
keep them private.

You can read and post through google. I am not sure how easy it is though.
Google also has email. (gmail).
