Hal recently posted instructions on how to post to usenet using the
anonymous remailers. Here's a collection of email to usenet gateways
I have, no doubt far from complete.
group-name at ucbvax.berkeley.edu *
group-name at cs.utexas.edu
group-name at pws.bull.com
group.name at news.demon.co.uk
Actually, the latter is group-name at demon.co.uk, and it's intended for
demon customers. I believe they don't police this too heavily (ie they
could chop connections from non-demon sites) but if it's heavily overused
or abused there's a chance it might disappear. These sites are *not*
anonymous remailers, in case anyone thought that. They post under the
name presented in your mail to it, and if you forge mail the demon one
at least attaches an 'Originator:' line with the real site, and sends
a copy to the postmaster.
Generally, a service not to be abused.
The only open NNTP server I know of at the moment is sol.ctr.columbia.edu,
and it has user limits and time restrictions. Still, it's better than none.
