Perhaps someone will respond with the info you need. All I can give you is
advice as I see it.
Been around a couple 3 years. Never once have I sent or received email from
anyone associated with newsgroups. That way, I don't have a single name in
my email address book and no one has mine. Should anyone ever get my
computer, about the only email they can find is spam and family. Should they
want to assume my identity, no big deal. They can say hi to my momma.
I admit, when I jumped into the usenet I was a bit impatient and wanted to
ask for help but ended up just watching and waiting. At this point, I really
don't have time or resources or the need to add any groups.
My advice? Never mix newsgroups with email. Never means never.
Settle in, have fun, be safe.
