One other thing I might suggest is to switch your newsgroup account to
the following free access newsgroup server:
http://www.eternal-september.org/
I've been using them for a couple of years no and have no complaint with
their service. Their spam filtering works as I hardly see any spam and
the ones that do slip through is certainly not in magnitude that others
here have remarked they are seeing in this newsgroup.
I signed up. But, where do you find the newsgroups?
You gots to query the news server, which will then serve up a delicious
list of all its newsgroups. How to do that depends on what news client
you use: for Thunderbird, the command is "Manage newsgroup
subscriptions". Other programs may use some variation of "subscribe"
(which is a funny concept; you don't actually subscribe to a newsgroup,
but just add it to your list of newsgroups to choose from).
