Hello Victor,
I'm taking the liberty to paste here a list of free news servers, wich
is compiled by Tony Perez and is last updated on 12-9-96 (so it may be
out of date).
PLEASE: Don't send any comment to ivo kwanten (me) as i'm just pasting
this (outdated?) list as a service to the usenet-readers. If you want to
comment, do it to Tony Perez (I did not check wether his email-address
is still right).
***************************start pasted text****************************
Open News Sites
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is my current list of open sites. Check back often for updates, as
many sites close soon after. New servers were added on 3:40 PM on
12-9-96. Thanks for all your mail and comments! All of the suggestions
where taken into consideration. The most common suggestion was to show
which servers allow posting. I am working very hard at this.
Update (3:40 PM on 12-9-96): New servers were added today! Many new
Italian servers. Thanks for everyone who gave me information about
servers.

suggestions, and inaccurate information about servers to [Please do not
mail me to tell me that a server says, "You have no permission to talk"
This message means that the server is only down for your ISP (i.e.
aol.com, ix.netcom.com). Although others with different ISP's might be
able to use that server. Thanks for your cooperation.]:

Have you tried http://www.zippo.com -- it is a web-based service, but it does allow free posting and limited alt.* access (e.g., sports groups). Unlimited alt.* access is fee-based.
