Since you MVP's are in the know, could you please post a msg/list
of what and when these topics will be dropped and Where should we
go for help. (Dates, other links, etc.) Maybe post is several area's
so all user's will get the info.

WHY is Microsoft dropping these newsgroups ?
I've used these Newsgroups since it was started and they have been
so helpful in solving problems and learning.

Not sure where to post this but it would be nice to copy it into
the more used groups for others to have this information.

Thanks in advance for the help and all your help in the past years !

They don't tell us everything. I have no information about the next phase
of newsgroup closures other than what is here.

Can't find what you are looking for? Links are available below for
Newsgroups Deleted June 1, 2010
http://www.microsoft.com/communities...s/default.aspx

Microsoft Responds to the Evolution of Communities
http://www.microsoft.com/communities...s/default.mspx

By October, the MS news server will cease to exist. Other news servers
will continue to carry the newsgroups. How long, no one knows.

If you subscribed to a server such as Eternal-September, you will find
your lost groups. That said, there will be less people asking and
answering posts as time goes on. I am posting now in the new Microsoft
Answers forums as well as the Usenet groups.

Here is the Microsoft Answers home page.

You can still use them. Just find a news server that carries them
such as free news server news.eternal-september.org. Just because MS
is not going to carry them does not mean they will completely
disappear.

Who know maybe even some of the MVPs may hang around to help answer
questions there??

Just find a news servers that carries them!
#1. not all News Servers are Sharing....
For as Microsoft public Close Newsgroups they stop will stop Sharing of
groups that have been Close.
For no more Download and Upstream at Microsoft Server!

# 2 Automatic Download and Upstream at the News Servers will have ERROR

# a 2. Setup Download to all News Servers
I-Have-feed outside
Posting from outside
Will error on the Close of a groups

# b 2. Upstream Setup on the News Servers side
Check mark Upstream sending (own posts) activated
Check mark Automatic feeding (must be online)
email hot-

Upstream Servers (Usenet)
Server msnews.microsoft.com

uncheck mark Use Authentication
Username: UserName
Password: PassWord


The News Servers will have to Delete the Microsoft Server be cause or ERRORS
Dam Log is fall of ERRORS ERRORS ERRORS ERRORS
be good if Microsoft would Close all the groups at one time!
to Close one a day makes ERRORS Upstream Servers (Usenet)
And Microsoft is LOOL the Upstream Servers (Usenet)

Os Post articles on news servers that carries them!
a Post a ERRORS
we see a Post articles and it look good
But Upstream Servers (Usenet) see a ERRORS that is felling Logs File!
And is Microsoft is LOOL

So one will have to give
Upstream Servers (Usenet)
have no MVP's to run the Show for they!
And is Microsoft is LOOL

A Old saying @ Linux
Linux for Linux
Microsoft for Microsoft
and we will eat the Apples!

I thought you disappeared. Looks like you are back because you forgot to take your
meds. Go and take them immediately and go away again
