Is there a place on the Internet where I can access a document
describing the steps (1, 2, 3, 4 etc.) for establishing and setting up
newsgroups on SeaMonkey. I have looked for two days for such a
document (written at the elementary level user) without success.
Also, are the setup procedures the same for both SeaMonkey and
Thunderbird?
click on Edit, Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings, then on the bottom
left is a button that says "Add Account." Click that, and follow the
instructions. For example:
Your Name: put in the name you want others to see you as
Email Address: put in the address you want to use
Newsgroup Server: news.mozilla.org
and that should be it. The program will do the rest itself.
As for SM and TB: yes, its the same in TB as in SM
How does one find a list of the many newsgroups available on the
Internet?
find a news server you want, add the account, when its added click on
File, Subscribe and this will give you a list of groups currently on
that server.
Thanks for helping me. I need one more piece of guidance having to do
with news servers. You say to find a news server you want and add the
account. Okay, for example purposes, let me say I am looking for an
account having to do with Western Digital Hard Drives. Are you saying
that I would do a Google search for Western Digital News Servers or is
there someplace where one can access/select from a complete list of
newsgroups? I do note that if I click File>Subscribe while in this
newsgroup I am able to see a listing of Mozilla groups. How was this
and other newsgroups found in the first place.
Sorry for such a beginner question, but the bottom line is I don't know
how to find the news server I would like to access.
