Thunderbird works with nntp.aioe.org if it's any help

server name you've seen in usenet headers is entirely internal to
Google. They want you to use the Google Groups web interface with your
web browser.
There are news-servers that are free for reading and posting. I suggest
you look at the newsgroup alt.free.newsservers.
