You must have a phone number for them. Phone them up and ask them what the
address is for their news server if you really can't find it on their
website. First, you could just guess. Usually it would be one of:
news.adelphia.net
nntp.adelphia.net
You could just try both of those and see if it gets you anything. (After
creating the News Server Account, if you don't get an error when you click
OK, go to it in the Folder List, click on it, and you'll get either an error
or a request to download the list of newsgroups.
If neither works, you'd better phone them up.
