Message-ID: <B5CFBC051993D41196FF00D0B78EE626DA3C6A@RUS2NT01> (raw)

C-h i m gnus <RET> finding the news <RET>

   ...If this variable (gnus-select-method) is not set, Gnus will take a
look at the
`NNTPSERVER' environment variable.  If that variable isn't set, Gnus
will see whether `gnus-nntpserver-file' (`/etc/nntpserver' by default)
has any opinions on the matter.  If that fails as well, Gnus will try
to use the machine running Emacs as an NNTP server.  That's a long
shot, though.
