yale.rec.ultimate.men

yrum — yale.rec.ultimate.men — is the team newsgroup, where practice and
tournament info, team banter, and a variety of mostly vulgar, offensive, and deprecating humor can be found.

Access Instructions

USING A NEWSREADER:

You can use a newsreader such as Outlook Express,
Mozilla Thunderbird, Netscape Messenger, Free Agent,
WinVN, etc. The Yale NNTP (news) server
is news.yale.edu . Use your newsreader to log onto the Yale
server and subscribe to yale.rec.ultimate.men. If you need
more help, here is an article with step-by-step instructions
for Mozilla Thunderbird. Steps for other newsreaders will be
similar, though not identical.


USING PINE
:

- Log on to your Pantheon account using a secure telnet
 client such as HostExplorer or SSH.
* if you don't have a secure telnet client, you can
download one here.
- Enter "eli.yale.edu" as the host name, then your NetID and
password.
- Type "pine" at the prompt to launch the Pine e-mail
program.
- Press "L" at the main menu.
- Choose the third item, "News on news.yale.edu/nntp" and
press enter.
- Press "A" to add a newsgroup.
- Type "yale.rec.ultimate.men" at the prompt.
- Select yale.rec.ultimate.men and press enter.
- You can scroll through and read the posts on the newsgroup
just as you would with your e-mail inbox.

USING E-MAIL:

Previously, YRUM could be accessed via an e-mail/news
gateway. However, because of bugs on the Yale servers,
messages from the newsgroup are no longer copied to the
mailing list.

However, you can still post to the newsgroup by sending an
e-mail to yrum@mailman.yale.edu . All posts to the mailing
list are copied to the newsgroup.

You can subscribe to the mailing list, or view the mailing
list archives, here. However, this is no substitute for
accessing the newsgroup itself using the above two methods.

Archive

We keep an archive of the more amusing posts to the newsgroup, but be warned:
a
nywhere else on the web, you'd need a credit card to access most of this stuff.
I
t is not for the faint of heart or the easily offended. If you are either, avoid these pages entirely, particularly anywhere you see the word "Blake." The archive is accessible
via the menu bar to the right.
