I don't know if you would call it full fledged, but it works fine here (using my ISP's news server news.blueyonder.co.uk). I set up a new mail account in Evolution 2.0.2, but in the Receiving Mail tab, I set the server type to "USENET news" and pointed it at the news server. For sending mail, I used the same settings as my ordinary mail account. I then went to Tools / Subscribe to folders and the list of newsgroup names gradually appeared. If you connect via a modem connection, this could take a few minutes. I subscribed to my chosen newsgroup, then a news folder (with the name the account I set up for it) appeared below my inbox (just above the VFolders). In this folder is the folder with all the messages for the newsgroup I subscribed to. Thanks for telling me about this feature; I wouldn't have known it was there otherwise, and would have gone off and installed another news reader. cheers, Jim Avery
