Question for BT Yahoo users about newsgroups

I am presently on Pipex broadband but will be changing ISP to BT Yahoo due
to a large company discount. Can any BT Yahoo customer please tell me if BT
Yahoo list a newsgroup called free.uk.airports-luton. I am a contributor to
this very small newsgroup and don't want to loose access to it. Thank you.

They don't carry any free.uk groups, apart from a very small number
that were already on the feed before that policy was introduced.

I don't think that free.uk.airports-luton was one of those carried,
but I left BTY for Plusnet when I got Broadband 6 weeks ago, so I
can't check now.

If you find that you are stuck, I note that
http://www.news.astraweb.com/
carries it. I was in a similar situation and $10 from my credit card
has sorted me ok. 25Gb for you would last a lifetime.

Hi

No, free.uk.airports-luton is not included amongst the few free.uk groups
that are.

Good, I asked them to add a newsgroup and they did within a week, so
you may do better than the Europe ISPs to get other ones added.
Anything you post may take a few extra minutes to propogate though.
