How do you know it's not working? Do you get an error message? Or have you simply not subscribed to a newsgroup? Subscribe to a newsgroup by typing "U" and then entering the newsgroup's name: or, get the full newsgroup listing from your server by typing "A A", and when you have the cursor over a candidate, type "u" (lower-case). These are all menu options, too BTW. If you aren't using Emacs in X, you can access the menu options with "M-~".
