Have you registered at that site? This is required according to the information there. I have sparely visited Usenet lately, but I can remember having successfully sent messages to newsgroups on the nntp server of my provider. So, in the Send options of that nntp account there is smtp and I put in the user name and password of that smtp server. Have you tried other email clients like mozilla thunderbird and opera ? Hope that helps. -- thomas _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
