Google groups has it's inherited problems specifically with the
subject line because it's not so obvious with the edit subject link
and also the reply to feature.

So use a real usenet account. :-)
I offered more than once a free usenet account on our newsserver here
(only to regulars, non-spammers, etc.). There is almost no good reason
to use google for anything else than their search engine (and even
bing.com brings similar search results)

not a problem at all, you're welcome. :-)

we try our best to keep the service up and running (it is really low
usage and financially speaking one has to stop the newsfeed, but being a
community guy ...)

and as a next step the access will be IPv6 enabled (native, of course).

search the archives what to do and how to contact me for a free account.

I wish I could but on some computers I use, I can't install third
party software :-)

With the advent of Gmail and Google groups, I have gotten out of the
specialized programs such as Outlook and newsgroup readers and gone
into cloud computing to some degree.

You're very trusting. Never put anything into the cloud that you wouldn't want
to see on the front page of the New York Times.

With your thought, please pull the plug to your USENET access and turn
your computer off.

Hackers lurk and whatever is on your computer that is accessing to the
internet that you wouldn't want seen on the front page of the New York
Times could be seen.

DUH, what an IDIOT you are.

The issues of data security in cloud environments are well documented
including the latest campaign by the former head of the NSA regarding
such.

Not really. I'm not putting my confidential data on someone else's computers
and trusting them to keep it confidential. That would be very naive.

It would be very naive to think your computer accessible to the
internet is keeping your data confidential. You really are
disconnected from reality.

Depends on your IT capabilities. With my data local, I can keep any
aggressor from it except the most aggressive of the intelligence
agencies.

These predators will still have to deal with humanly unbreakable
encryption (Truecrypted volumes) once they hit my data.
