My ISP appears to have stopped updating the newsgroups it hosts.
What news servers do people round here recommend?
I have a question about access to newsgroups. Which currently available
browser is able to access a newsgroups server? Currently, I am using
Netscape 7.2 under Windows 98SE. If I upgrade to Windows 10,
I probably won't find anything from Microsoft which will support reasonable
access to newsgroups. Is there a link to a site which has an
application that
supports access to newsgroups in a manner similar to how Netscape 7.2
provides access. BEST would be a browser that also supports access
to e-mail in the same manner as Netscape 7.2 and which also allows me
to copy all of the archived 100,000 e-mails and posts which I have
acquired over the last 15 years. It is only about 300 MB, so the size
is not a factor.
Probably the closest thing (and actually a descendant) would be SeaMonkey?

I know someone will probably recall the same question a while ago, but
the answer given then was not sufficient to make the switch. At least
a link to the site which has the files to be downloaded would be needed
since just the name of the application does not seem to help me.
