yep - just do a google on alt.canadiens or any other ng you are
interested in and you will see all of the posts. Then with a gmail
account, you can log in and post and reply. I set my gmail alias to the
same as my ng alias at home that way it looks like its coming from the
same person.

Isn't Outlook a virus magnet?

I avoid it myself. I use Netscape for email and a dedicated
newsreader called Forte Agent for usenet.

I've used Netscape for usenet too but I prefer the interface in Agent.
