which NNTP service provider is everyone here using??

I was going to use my Easynews account, but chickened out when I read the TOS. They were very much ''you must use the account soley for your own use''. Technically it is, but I figured too dicey as I'm in the UK and my site is on a US server, and they might notice I can't be in two continents at once. :P In the end I went with teranews.com who give 50mb a day free, which is plenty for the couple of text groups I use. They charge a one off $3.95, which isn't bad. Had no problems so far.

I'm just gearing up to switch the posting function on. Am a bit nervous of that in case it posts what's already there. I guess I'm gonna have to re-read this whole thread again <whimpers> but am I remembering rightly that people can't use the normal vbcodes when replying? Or if they do they don't get converted like they do on the way in? That'll take some getting used to for some of my members.
