5.24. How can I post messages to the Usenet via electronic mail?

There are a few sites on the Usenet that offer e-mail to Usenet gateways so that you can post to any newsgroup by sending e-mail. This isn't the usual way for most of us with Usenet readers to post, but it works if your site doesn't have Usenet or if your news posting software is broken.

One mail-to-news gateway is at decwrl.dec.com. To use it, mail your message to newsgroup@decwrl.dec.com. For example, to post to alt.internet.services send your message to alt.internet.services.usenet@decwrl.dec.com.
