[HECnet] NEWSRDR or other ...

Good evening: I fetched NEWSRDR off of one of the Freeware distribution sites, and after configuring things, settings up logicals, etc ... an attempt to run NEWSRDR results in: %NEWS-I-UPDATING, locating unread articles; please wait... %NEWS-E-UNEXPRSP, unexpected response from server: "480 Authentication Required" Does anyone have experience with setting up NEWSRDR to authenticate to my ISP's mail server, or is there a client out there for OpenVMS that supports this? This error message suggests that NEWSRDR does not. Apologies if this is slightly off topic, but there's far less noise here than comp.os.vms - plus I don't have to wear my "asbestos underwear" here.
