Using Pan 0.14.2, you click on Tools > News Servers > Add ; then tell it
news.gmane.org. It carries a huge variety of lists in usenet format --
particularly useful for lists you want to scan, actually reading only few
of the posts -- and most particularly for lists on any listserver I know
of other that Listserv : i.e., any that lack the INDEX option (which I
keep hoping mailman will get, but not seeing)
