    I keep getting a message: Authentication required. Please read the
    NewsHound documentation to see how to set your username and password.

    Where is this documentation?
    I can't find it.

    There's a !NewsHound.Docs folder inside the application -- or there always
    used to be, at least.

    I was also getting that message. The reality seems to be that usenet
    misbehaved for a time.
