Dear Valued Customer:

Effective June 30, 2010, Cox Communications will discontinue Usenet service
to our subscribers.

Best Regards

Tom.



Check out DSL Extreme... They include full usenet access with (I think
all of) their accounts. Been with them about 3 years now and they've
rocked the whole time.

I agree.

However... note that I only use DSL Extreme as a 'dumb pipe' to the
internet, and don't use their e-mail or DNS server... and can't vouch
for the performance of either. (I IMAP Gmail, and flip flop between Open
DNS and Google DNS.)


Well Google has been doing there mail for a good bit of time now so
no real difference there.
