Opera NewsGroup Gone?

OldGuy

In the past I used news.opera.com / opera.general

Now It seems not to work.
11/21/2013 is the last post I have captured some time ago.

Is there an alternative?

Or maybe someone here can answer.

How do I force Opera to download all eMail info.
I see the header but have to click and wait for the internals and
attachments (if any) to show up.

Opera 12.16 build 1860

Or is there some other app that will do as Opera 12 does: support
eMail, browsing and newsgroups?

TIA
