Getting Foo points for newsgroup submissions

 What is USENET? 

Also known as "'newsgroups," the USENET is the largest of the 3 sections of the internet (the other sections are 'e-mail' and 'web sites').  There are over 60,000 newsgroups--think of them as bulletin boards.  Your ISP (Internet service provider)  may not carry every newsgroup.  If there's a newsgroup you want, just contact your ISP and request them to add it--it doesn't cost you or your ISP anything.

It'd be great if everyone could access our newsgroups...
 
A newsgroup is the best way to post news--much better than email newsletters. 


How to do it (and get FOO points)

1. Send an email to your ISP
Do not use free mail (e.g. hotmail etc.)  use the one that came with your ISP account (e.g. earthlink, etc.) 

You have to send the email to 3 places (all at the same time) :

- Your ISP tech support
- Your ISP customer Service
- Oddhobby Fan Club

Most email programs allow you to send to multiple addresses--just separate the addresses with a comma--if you are an earthlink customer your  "to: box"  would look like this:

service@earthlink.net, support@earthlink.net,  ngspoints@ thefoo.org

Here is a list of newsgroups (to request):

alt.oddhobby
alt.geak-floyd
alt.binaries.oddhobby
alt.fan.oddhobby
alt.tv.reviews-by.oddhobby

In the subject line type: "Please give me access to these Usenet groups"

   Please just send one request for all five newsgroups. 
   When we get your email, 50 points will be assigned to your email address.
