Could you give us or point us towards some simple instructions as how one uses gmane.comp.python.tutor with Thunderbird. I had a go and I have found it daunting.
Create a new news account (File-New-OtherAccount) Enter your details, click next Enter the gmane news server address: news.gmane.org Give it a friendly name Finish Thats it. Now on that account page Manage newsgroup subscriptions(wait for it to populate) Use the show items box to filter - eg type comp.python Select the ones you want. Click subscribe Done Now on each newsgroup you can click on it and it will download the latest messages(might take a while first time round. You might want to limit the number to say 50-100) -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
