This is correct.  I included the news.ReadFreeNews.net server as a default
server because I esteemed it *highly* unlikely to ever "die" and it allows
for downloading articles without login.  To *post*, users must sign up for a
login/password and reconfigure the Server Prefs.

BTW, the subject of your original post was severely lacking; every poster
should make sure he posts a *substantive* subject.  To do otherwise is both
rude and irritating and highly likely to cause readers to skip your post
altogether.
