The netscape.public.* hierarchy is on Usenet, and was on Usenet before this server existed. Those newsgroups will still be available on Usenet when this server shuts down.

The inability to close down or rename old newsgroups is one of the reasons why these groups are not fed to Usenet.

In addition, the mailing lists of some of the to-be-terminated newsgroups are gated through gmane, eg gmane.comp.mozilla.seamonkey.user, gmane.comp.mozilla.announce.

If replacement mailing lists are needed then Freelists <https://www.freelists.org/> would seem to be the obvious solution, having a "business model" similar to that of SeaMonkey.
