Server Name: news.grc.com
Port: 119
Security Settings: None
check - Always request authentication when connecting to this server

Done.

Now here is the trick: when you first post (do it at g.test so that you
are sure it's working & you don't piss off anyone in the regular groups)
enter a *password* of your choice when it prompts you for a _username_.
Then when prompted for a password, enter the same password that you
entered when prompted for a username. When you then look at your
password manager in SeaMonkey you will see two entries for grc:
news://news.grc.com (news://news.grc.com/#password)
news://news.grc.com (news://news.grc.com/#username)
They _both_ should be the same.
