Subject: Help me use pine for newsgroups!!

I was wondering if anyone out there knew how to use pine v. 3.89 to post 
on these newsgroups and others. Any responses can be sent to me 
personally, or posted here, but please ensure that the subject appears, 
or that you direct my attention to it, as I dn't read this group very 
often. 

Thank you very much.

    No.  Pine3.89 can be used to read, but does not permit you to post
news articles directly.  Await Pine3.90 eagerly for this.
    To post, you must use methods used by those with read-only access to
a news server, namely, posting by means of a mail-to-news gateway.

I tried using Pine3.89 to read news via nntp from our local server, and
was (I'm afraid) unimpressed with the user interface; just as a matter
of interest, are there any plans to introduce threading in a later
version?

Threading will come some time _after_ Pine 3.90...

There are two gateways that I know of.  To post an article, sent it via
E-mail to:

	[email-masked]

or

	[email-masked]

where you substitute "groupname" with the name of the newsgroup you
want to post to.
