Don't quite understand this. Presumably AT&T has the NG on their list, but
if I access it through BT, I don't need to worry. Of course because I follow
the Reiki Principles, I won't worry anyway!

But if BT is giving you news access through the AT&T usenet servers, you
won't be able to get the groups after July 15. There's several free
newservers you can use to connect to, and a few low cost ones.

BT Use Giganews, I understand. However, that is all I do understand when it
comes to newsgroups.

Then yes, you're fine. Giganews is separate from AT&T.
