That should be no reason in a business network. We have had a local news server for a while, it was used for an internal news and discussion experiment until it became obvious that the "see every article once" model is not really well suited for this. Then we had a phpBB for a while but it was discontinued as well. The people were not ready to communicate in the way that they now do all the time on twitter and yammer. However, external usenet servers cannot be configured because the network does not allow connections from the workstations to the internet. (browsing is via a proxy server) Most business networks at least have a firewall. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
