[ale] Mindspring & NNTP?

[Dow Hurst]

I forget that when I tried using earthlink I had another user's 
login/passwd who was directly part of the earthlink.net network to test 
with.  I was testing how to get the newsgroup server set up so I could 
give her a procedure.  Oh well.  Call or do a support chat with 
earthlink to find out what to do.  Then post the answer here for us. :-)
Thanks,
Dow
