Re: UKHA Newsgroup Latest

["graham_howe" <graham@xxxxxxx>]

Bloody typical, I have been wanting a news group for years and now
that (fingers crossed) it looks like we might get one, I am working
for a company that blocks newsgroups! The company also seems to be
blocking Outlook Web Access to my home exchange server as I can
access it from other locations but not here. So guess what, I get to
use the shite advert infested Yahoo web interface during the day and
then get home to a mail box with about 200 messages.
