[A bit OT] Text usenet server ?

Hello,

My current provider is no longer offering Usenet as a service. THat's
odd but that's how things run today.

Do you know a (serious) NNTP provider (free cost or not) where I
could subscribe ?

Regards

dotsrc.org (a long time ago known as sunsite.dk) has an nntp-server you
can use for the cost sending an email or two:

 * http://dotsrc.org/usenet/

They are located in Denmark, so you may or may not have to consider the
speed of light.

If you get really enthusiastic and want to run your own news server,
there is a network of more or less crazy people doing just that:

 * http://www.pnx.dk/


  Best regards,

    Adam

Forte-agent nntp service is very cheap and very good (inclusive)
