Hi,

I have looked and asked Google but could not find anything:

Is there a webpage that offers an online newsreader similar to google
mail? There is Google Groups but it doesn't allow me to e.g. post to
these newsgroups (actually it does but it won't show up here because
it doesn't post to the Borland news servers). What I am looking for
is an online newsreader which I can configure to use any news server
and which gives me basic reading, searching and posting functionality.

Any hints?

I'm not familiar with google mail, so I'm not clear what you want. A
Newsreader is an app that reads NewsGroups, rather than web pages - at
least in my view. I stuck with Netscape for a long time before
searching for something better. I'm not sure I found it. Outlook
Express, much like Netscape, I think will read newsgroups. I have been
using XanaNews for a while now. And although it appears to be no longer
supported, and has some quirks, it seems to be popular. You can try
www.wilsonc.demon.co.uk which may get you to the site where you can
download it.
