Step 5:
Enter your full Speakeasy email address for Account Name.
Enter your news password.
Your news password is separate from your email/MySpeakeasy password,
though they can be set to the same password if you wish. You can reset
your news password via MySpeakeasy (Manage/Add Services > Manage
Email/Passwords > Change News Password.)

Thanks, that cured it.
I was using what I thought was the same NNTP user id & password as in
Thunderbird on the Windoze box, but I went out to Speakeasy and reset it
to be sure. Thunderbird gave an auth failure on Usenet access, so you
were right. I could have sworn I had set it to the "email" password.

I appreciate your help. I would have replied in Gnus, but your post
didn't show up in the thread for some reason.
