[Qt-interest] Configuring Thunderbird for Usenet posting to this newsgroup

This should be very easy ... but I can only post messages by sending an
e-mail to this group at the above address. Although they do arrive
(using Evolution as mail client), I cannot seem to configure
Thunderbird, which I use for Usenet, so that the messages appear
properly threaded. Each one arrives as a separate post.

I have registered my email address at the Nokia site and received the
confirmation mail OK. But T-Bird always says that the "connection was
refused". I can RECEIVE messages with no problem, just not send them.

I have tried using nntp.qt.nokia.com and just qt.nokia.com as host name
with no luck.

Can anybody give me some instructions? In the previous T-Bird I had
running on Ubuntu 8.04, and with the old NNTP server, this was never a
problem.
