[news.admin] Can newsgroups be set up with Mail feeds?

sdroppers@pbs.uucp (Seton Droppers) (02/10/90)

I am having trouble finding a replacement news feed in the Wash DC area for the
new "non standard" newsgroups vmsnet.*.  Since I would like to avoid long
distance phone calls if possible I am wondering if it is possible to work with
another site to set up a mail arrangement for a set of newsgroups.  If such is
possible then is it reasonable to allow my site to be a "local hub" for any
other users that want to use the newsgroups?  And, is doing this sort of thing
part of the normally accepted way of doing such things?

Thanks for your help.
