My news server, Cableone Newsgroup Service, identified as news.cableone.net
is no longer available and I can`t access my newsgroup. My newsreader,
Outlook Exp.was, of course, connected to this server. I`ll have to
subscribe to another server and I want to keep Outlook Exp. Please advise.

John E. Paul,
Cableone is advertising some News Services he
http://help.cableone.net/email/news.aspx

I use the basic package from GigaNews, that is contracted through Comcast.
Which has all the newsgroups that I'm interested in. Most of the free news
servers no longer offer access to binary newsgroups, or very limited access.
Plus there are not as many as they used to be.

msnews.microsoft.com for Microsoft newsgroups.

I have news.aioe.org for a backup NSP; however, as I recall, you get
only 20 posts max per day and the owner also employs non-RFC compliant
anti-spam measures, like requiring the FollowUp-To header be specified
when replying to crossposted messages. individual.net is about $12
per year which is pretty cheap. Text newsgroups only. If you want
one that includes binary groups then you'll probably have to look at
commercial (paid) newsgroup service providers (NSPs).

Go ask in alt.free.newsservers for other free NSPs.
