I can choose from at least two servers locally (a warande newsserver (place I live) and a surfnet server (my provider)), but they both don't save message as long as the german server and also they don't filter for spam... Maybe I'll just pay up. -- pixel - knight of aglami www.warande.net/~pixel jwerf at phil dot uu dot nl msn: johannesvanderwerf at hotmail dot com icq: 58550811 www.aglami.net (new!) - FABRICATI DIEM, PVNC - >> Stay informed about: Newsserver lameness

Yes, all we want is a newsserver that is completely free, can be accessed with any newsreader, carries Aglami and the groups we regularly crosspost to, filters spam, is reliable and fast, and will be around for all eternity.
