Mail<->News gateways

[jonano]

I want to post news from my mailing list to newsgroups and I need the
following info from you:

The hostname of the machine your news server is running on

and

what does it mean? -->

Should Mailman perform a catchup on the newsgroup?

--Jon

This value may be either the name of your news server, or optionally of the format name:port, where port is a port number. The news server is not part of Mailman proper. You have to already have access to an NNTP server, and that NNTP server must recognize the machine this mailing list runs on as a machine capable of reading and posting news.
