Before composing your reply click "Preview" then click "Edit" and the
context will appear although it'll be a terrible mess that you'll have
to reformat manually. There'll also be a blank line at the top for you
to remove - it appears that GG2 is encouraging top posting.

Well lie, and say IE5 :-)
Its not as if one uses a browser to access a newsgroup. Anything which will
do the news protocols will work; the Mozilla newsreader, Outlook Express,
Netscape, or (I guess) even vn !

I guess so :-)

They are fine with your email address; all they want it for is to issue you
with a username and password pair so that you can post messages. There is no
suggestion they will spam you.
