Holy crp, googles reply box is now a massive 11 characters wide!!

I signed up to motzarella (sp), and am using Oopera 9, but the
procedure opera says to subscribe to a newsgroup doesnt work cos it
aint listed. Only posenet and motzarella groups are listed. Any clues
welcomed!

Please configure your newsreader to access
news.motzarella.org
The port number is 119. This is the standard port number for news servers
and should be set as a default in your client. You also have to configure
your client to use the userid and password you will soon receive by email.
If you are only able to select groups in the

motzarella.*
and posenet.*

hierarchies, your news client has connected to the server without sending
the userid and password. Please refer to your newsreader's documentation
for information on how to configure server access with authentication or
check the FAQ

In case of problems or questions don't hesitate to conatct
.

I gave up trying to configure it in Thunderbird. You can tick the
authentication box but couldn't figure out where you enter the user id
and password. At that point the NTL server started functioning again so
I ditched the idea.
