Thanks for the reply David.

Hmm... I've never considered running a Usenet server. I doubt I could do
that on my laptop though? Surely it would require very much more in the
way of storage than a laptop could provide? And I don't have servers at
home these days.

Yes, I had considered that, but I didn't get as far as looking up what
variable to set. The impression I get is that this is not a case of a
server that is temporarily down, but rather of one that has been
permanently removed.

I don't know if anyone else here uses textnews.news.cambrium.nl and has
any news about it. I didn't find anything at all on their webpages when
I checked a few days ago.
