1. The Microsoft newsgroups are hosted on Microsoft servers. Naturally,
only Microsoft newsgroups are on these servers. There are many other
public newsgroups and probably your ISP - Alltel? - has news servers.
Go to your ISP's website and see how to access newsgroups on their
servers. Most usually one enters the news server, one's username and
password.

2. Don't ever post your real, unmunged email address on Usenet or
messageboards. It will be harvested by spambots. Here is a link
explaining about munging email addresses:
