I am using thunderbird right now to post this message, so naturally I 
can help you ;)

news.php.net
Then when you have that set up you should see news.php.net in the left 
frame.
Right-click on it and choose subscribe
Then browse through the php folder and find which group you want to 
subscribe to (this group is php.general).  I'm using Thunderbird 1.0 
although it also worked for me in prior versions of Thunderbird (I was 
using the 0.6 tree for a while).

I am just trying to see if I can do the same.

No. I'm using the news server too. It's just slow sometimes, and might 
throw an error.
