While not as easy as using a news group, you can certainly use any web site that maintains a news archive and allows posting.

Re: Having problem using LISTSERV.UA.EDU with thunderbird
You can access IBM-MAIN three ways 1. Via the web interface 2. To your e-mail account 3. Via the news group that it is gated to. If you use a news client to post to that group, subscribers to IBM-MAIN will not see your post. Also, "listserv.ua.edu" is not a news server; use the server provided by your ISP, if any, or sign up with an outside news server. But I advise against this route for IBM-MAIN.

Re: Having problem using LISTSERV.UA.EDU with thunderbird
Yaniv, You're mixing up listerv and newsgroup. Different animals. If you want to read ibm-main as email, then you would register an email address and all the posts to the listserv will be forwarded to your private email account. You wouldn't configure Thunderbird to use listserv.ua.edu at all, you'd just use your personal email account. If you want to read the posts using Thunderbird as a news reader, then you also won't use listserv.ua.edu, but instead setup a news server account (your ISP either provides one, or you can use one of the for-fee servers or I think there still might be some free ones around) and then subscribe to the bit.listserv.ibm-main newsgroup.
