Attention Wayne hater

Verizon used to provide newsgroups, but it looks
like they don't anymore. A large number of internet
providers don't provide newsgroups anymore. That's
not a problem, because you can get your newsgroups
direct from a newsgroup provider.

You can get newsgroups in your Thunderbird, through
Motzarella.com
Motzarella is what I use the most. Motzarella is
free, you just need to go there and sign up.

We will be glad to walk you through the process.

Well, when I set up news on T-bird, I have to enter the server name in
the "Server Settings" section of the "Account Settings" screen. I had to
call Verizon to get that info. Perhaps that's what he means.

Interesting. I'm working through Verizon's newserver right now. Have been for
years. Just have to put "news.verizon.net" in the server name field of T-bird.

About a year ago, I created a web page on my website
with tips on how to get set up to this newsgroup. At
that time, I located the verizon's instructions, and
posted the direct link on my page to their newsgroup
instruction page. That page is now gone, and I could
not find any such info on their pathetic web site.
But obviously if you are still using it, then they
still have it :-)

Ok then Mitch, if you want to use verizon's
newsgroups, George has given the server name for
you. It's "news.verizon.net".

But I would not be surprised if they don't have it
for long.

What I've done that works real well, is to create a clean list, that
colors all post in the clean list black, and colors the rest of the post
a pail green.

Unless your work server blocks newsgroup access, your home login should
work regardless of location. If they do block direct newsgroup access,
then either Gooogle Groups, or a pay for newsgroups web service (like
MailandNews) are your only choices...

And google doesnt let me see header info.


In Google Groups, hit the "More Options" link at the top of any message,
then choose "Show Original" to see the message with its headers.

Yeah, but you have to have a Verizon account to access their server. I've set
mine up to "remember" my password, but I still had to enter it the first time on
this computer.
