For the bellsouth.net newsgroup server, see here: <http://support.att.net/bellsouth/asp/contentview.asp?isbrowse=true&sprt_cid=4a0599c2%2D4129%2D4466%2Db2e2%2D0f3519699941> Note that to post on this server, you will have to do a little more. After you create the newsgroup account, click on Tools, then Options, then Send, then under News Sending Format, HTML Settings. If the text in the box after Encode text using: is None, click on the triangle and change it to one of the other choices. Click OK, then Plain Text Settings. If there if a blue dot in the circle before before MIME, and None in the box after Encode text using:, make the same change. Click on OK, then Apply, then OK again. If, after downloading the whole newsgroup list, you know of another newsgroup you want added, ask for it in newsgroup bellsouth.net.support.news-service (a private newsgroup for this server). |
