You need to ask your provider for the correct settings, your question
has nothing to do with this newsgroup. You'd have the same problem with
any newsgroup.

Probably because this is actualy a mailing list, not a newsgroup.

However Gnu Mail & News (www.gmane.org) provides two-directional mapping to
the nntp news protocol, so you are able to read/write it in your favorite
newsreader (including Outlook) using the following site:
nntp://news.gmane.org, list name(s) are slightly different:
comp.lang.python -> gmane.comp.python.general

Good luck,
Mike

Say what? It happens to be a newsgroup from where I sit. Of course,
there is a mailing list that's gated (incorrectly) to the newsgroup.
