You are now in the Netscape Message center. Go to menu Edit and click on Preferences. First, set your Identity. This will be the name that will appear on your postings. Next, set your Mail server.
Mail is kept on a server, just like web pages are.
Now, we set the Group Server settings. Be sure to type the server name and the port correctly. You do not have to specify the group folder. Now, we got to subscribe to the newsgroup. You should now be able to read and post to the newsgroup.
