If I try to do what you describe, Gnus says the servers are refusing the connection. So, may guess is that either the servers you tried aren't existing, or you need to authenticate. AFAIK you can't subscribe to mailing lists with a newsreader. You can only subscribe to groups. Groups and mailing lists are two different things. However, some mailing lists are linked to a certain group via a gateway, and thus those are synchronized. So, you may want to find out if the mailing lists you want are mirrored in a news group. Then you need to find a news server where you can read the newsgroup (not all newsservers will have the group you want). If I'm totally wrong, maybe describe what you want and did in more detail, and what messages you got etc. Michael
