Now the above is a type of private settings. Other public newsgroup servers will have different settings. If you get access to the usl posted then after entering your News server, select Next. Otherwise the main things is that you will need the proper newgroup address to access the news from it.

A dialog box asking if you wish to download all available newsgroups from the newly added account will be displayed. Notice on the left hand side a new section is included in the left pane named "news.xxxx.com."Choose Yes to see all of the newsgroups that are currently available for access on the Newsgroup server.

As almost immediately as you finished the newsgroup connection you will get all available newsgroups will be demonstrated. Select one by highlighting it and then choose the Subscribe button. This will allow you to download all messages from the preferred newsgroup to your computer for viewing and reply to posted messages.You can add and subtract Newsgroups at any time.
