[comp.sys.atari.st] USENET News feed to ST?

sajima@watsun.cc.columbia.edu (Takahiro Sajima) (05/09/89)

Hello again,
	I'm forwarding the following for my friend.  Please reply
directly to him at cmm1@cunixa.cc.columbia.edu.  Thanks.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Has anyone ever tried to get a direct feed of Usenet into their ST?  Is
there a way to make an ST a USENET site.  I am thinking of getting at
least 80-150 megs of storage for my ST and I was curious if this was
possible.  My university has very restrictive access to Usenet (you can
only read it if you're a student).  Also, is there a way to post to
Usenet through FIDO?  Please send the info to the address below as a
friend is forwarding this for me.  Thanks.

I too would like to know this. I'm already Fido, I run Binkley Term ST as a 
 frontend to FoReM ST.
I thought you could UUCP with STdel? I'd like to try this too!

 Yup.  You can, no problem.  (You can do fido to stadel, too.)
I've had a UUCP mailer running with STadel for, oh, about 2 years now.
