Thanks Sanjiyan,

I think that I will do that. Just make posts get pulled from USENET and not have forum members posts go to usenet.

I don't really want to lock forums though.

I'm having another problem now.

Have signed up with tigernewsnet.com ($7.50 a month) I have the server, username and password details.

Now when I plug these into outlook, it downloads the usenet groups I visit - so it works there.

But when I plug these details into the admincp usenet options, I get the following error:

Gateway version 2.3.2 1 group(s) gatewayed.
Could not connect to NNTP-server. (Permission denied (13))

Not connected
Not connected

I'm not sure why permission is getting denied and whether it has anything to do with my website host, or if it is the nntp host - although I doubt this because outlook is pulling threads with the settings...
