I was previously using Thunderbird but AT&T dropped their news-server

You can get a free email account he

http://gmx.com/

You can then use that email acount to get a free post/read account he

http://eternal-september.org/RegisterNewsAccount.php

You will be back in business with tbird and an email that people can
spam from here to high heaven, without worry ...

Just in case you are interested ... good luck, either way.

If you don't want want to mess around registering for the news server
or getting a throw away address, you can use the free nntp.aioe.org.
Just plug it into TB or any newsreader and away you go. There are more
restrictions than eternal-september but if you have a life other than
Usenet they won't bother you...
