I'm trying to figure out this Newsgroup thing and following Slyck.com's FAQ, it said to look find your ISP's Newsserver. Anyone know if Sprint Broadband has a news server because I can't find anything on their website about it.

It doesn't list all servers though.
I always get a 10060 SERVER Timed Out.

I'm using Xnews if that helps.

probably. Most ISPs have a news server I've noticed; the quality of which, however, may range quite a bit. What's your email server? mail.XXXXX.com or pop.XXXXX.com or something? Check yeou outlook settings if that's whats you use.

I'd bet it'd be news.XXXXX.com.
