As for "Find a real news server", this is a confusion that you
maintain deliberately, despite having been corrected numerous times.
News is a service, not a protocol. Web servers that serve news are
"real news server"s.

It seems that you did not get the point:

  Due to the amount of crap in the Google service, many readers
  intentionally ignore everything from groups.google.com;

Right, and those readers will not see your post. But those who don't
will see them. So the post will be seen, just not by some people.
There is no risk that your post will "not be seen". No post will be
seen by those who choose to filter it out.

  it has nothing to do with the protocol or service itself.

I know that and you know that. But Moe Trin does not, despite the fact
that it's been explained to him many times now. He seems to think that
a "real news server" is one that serves news using a particular
protocol on a particular port. He honestly believes that news is a
protocol, not a service.
