Reading/Posting to usenet with EMACS

[exits funnel]

Hello,

I apologize if this is a FAQ. A google search resulted
in about a million hits but the onese I took the time
to look at all seemed pretty dated.  The question then
is:  Is there a package available to allow me to
read/post to usenet?  If so could somebody just point
me in the right direction?  Thanks in advance.

newsreader, but  remember to browse  through the manual and  come back
here when you need help.  You're  probably going to want to change the
default behavior.

<news:gnu.emacs.gnus> is probably a better place to ask questions on
Gnus.

gnu.emacs.gnus is an excellent resource, with very immediate helpful
responses being forthcoming from many people.  The Web site
www.gnus.org is also excellent, with a very convenient copy of hte
manual, updated sources, etc.

I'm tempted to say it's a gnus world, but I'm sure that's been said
already.
