Re: NNTP - how to check for removed newsgroups ?

So, just any random backup ?  I guess I could grab my backups of my C89 
installation disks ...

Again, a backup of *what*.  I have zero clue what you are talking about.

Is that a newsgroup ?  If so, I have not been able to find it in my 
newsgroup reader.

That looks like the output of the NNTP "groups" command.  But if I would 
want to go that way I would need a current version of that list, not a stale 
one.
