OK, I know where to get a free feed, but I don't know what to do with it. How do I use my new Amiga (500) to get and send netnews and mail ? Is there any PD software out there that will do the job ? Thanks from a new amiga owner Bruce

I got this running last night, and it appears to work fairly well. I got my version off of Comp-U-Serve. (ver 1.1) but I think I remember seeing it on a fish disk (common phrase around here these days, thanks fred!) It was also posted to sources awhile ago. If you absolutly cannot find it anywhere and don't really want to spend the $5.00 on Comp-u-Serve, lemme know, and I can e-mail you my archive.
