News server

Usenet is a network of publicly available servers, allowing reading and posting of messages via NNTP protocol. News servers are used for storing messages that are available to anyone who wants to read them. You can both post messages and read them directly on the server. In addition to text messages, you can also post pictures or upload e-books, programs, etc.

Outlook Express is the most popular free email and news client that is included with Windows OS. Other popular programs include Forte Agent, Microplanet Gravity, News Xpres, etc.

Regardless of their connection type, all our clients can share information with other users of this service all around the world. The number of available newsgroups (currently about 102,000) is continuously growing.

Our news server is located at news.bitsyu.net.
