Depends. I use:

msnews.microsoft.com
news.spamcop.net
news.grc.com
cnews.corel.com
news.opera.com
news.ntcanuck.com
news.sf.sbcglobal.net

Is a user name and password required for setup?


Only for the last. I use my ISP User_ID and password for that one.

Is Secure Password Authentication required?


Not on any of the servers I use.
