Same date here, Newshosting must have just had a server wipe for some reason. Thanks.

Try these ones. I use Hamster to keep my own article and headers. It also allows you to use multiple servers and post in batches and only connect to the servers to get articles and headers. Every time I post, my articles appear one right after the other no matter how busy the group is. AIOE allows posting and reading without any registration at all. None of these carry any high traffic binary groups, but some *do* carry low volume ones. The following brief list of free text news servers is in alphabetical order without editorial comment. It's a short list. Check out the servers and decide for yourself which one is best for you. No one knows what works for you better than you do.

Thanks! I really don't do many binaries anymore, could be good alternatives there. The great ISP bail out alomst killed the non-tech-related hobby groups, you really have to make the effort to find Usenet now, but should have weeded out some of the frivilous posters too.
