If a more limited, but free, service would be acceptable, it is worth 
having a look at http://www.cis.dfn.de who provide a free news server 
available from anywhere. You have to register and agree to their 
conditions and receive a login and password. The carry no binary groups 
and only a few alt.*. They do, however, carry most of the uk.* 
hierarchy. In most groups, binaries and html are removed.
