    Hi Guys,

    Does anyone have the news server details of Google's new
    server?

    Or any other news server where I can download full archives from 1996 - to present.

    What I would like to do is download all the alt.bbs.excalibur messages onto
    my hard drive and peruse them at my leisure...

    Google has them right from June 30th 1996 but I need the server information
    to login and download to my HD using a news grabber.....

    http://groups.google.com/group/alt.bbs.excalibur/topics?start=2793&hl=en

    Any other suggestions of servers or programs to do this are welcome.

    No such thing is available.

    Very few if any has archives of all messages.

    The newsgroup was created around that time.
