Network News (USEnet) Discontinued

April 24, 2009 by John Mangrich

chat logo

The campus USEnet News server, news.service.uci.edu, will be discontinued after the end of the academic year on Tuesday, June 30, 2009.

At present, the service has minimal use and is running with older software and hardware.  External sources of USEnet News have been launched in recent years that provide a variety of quality services.  Campus users still reading news from our server should evaluate and switch to one of those sources or your local ISP’s news feed.

In the past, some classes have created local feeds on the campus news service for discussions. We recommend the EEE Class Mail List system for those needs.
