Greetings Pablo,

All you got to do is send a properly formated control.newgroup message.

You can find the procedure at
http://homepages.go.com/~eacalame/create.html using the free agent
newsreader.  Just ignore all the rest of the guide which deals with the
big eight and alt. hierarchy. (Change alt. to free where appropriate)

In addition to the proper header fields in the body of the message be
sure to enter the For your newsgroups file: as below.

For your newsgroups file:
newsgroup name(tab)  A few words describing the newsgroup.

{You must follow the format above exactly; copy the first line
verbatim, and on the second line give the name of the newsgroup,
followed by one or more spaces followed by a few words describing the
group. Do not run over the end of the line!)

Luck
