One solution, if you don't mind babelfishing some Polish, is Gazeta.pl. You apply for an email account there, and you get access to their newsserver as a sidedish. It's totally free, and since I joined (two months ago) I have yet to get the first spam message (or any message at all for that matter) from them. The news server is simply good. Another, not so good, but still working newsserver is Maxwell, dp-news.maxwell.syr.edu. You don't have to apply there at all, you just create an account in your news reader and you're done. -- Jan Willem from Odijk, Netherlands jw dot van dot dormolen at hccnet dot nl New to this newsgroup?
