Yes, unfortunately you need an internet provider that gives you access to usenet news. In corporations and offices that may not be easy to find. Are you aware of any free usenet servers out there?

by what mechanism do you read and post?

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned news access via
news.midrange.com yet. IMHO, this is far and away better than either of
the email methods. FWIW, I'm using Thunderbird as a client, and it has
really sweet keyboard shortcuts for expanding/collapsing threads,
marking messages or whole threads read, and even ignoring threads entirely.

I think the threading is better than when I was receiving messages via
email, but that may be placebo effect.
