Assuming you're not looking for binaries,
formatting link
and

are free but probably have posting limits.http://news.individual.net/ is 10 EUR a year if you need something more reliable.

How much posting do you do? If it's not too heavy, and you are looking to save money, give google groups a whirl for a couple of weeks. It's free, and not as bad as most people think.

individual.net Only a couple of euros a year, but no binary groups. Very reliable though.

Most of the free or cheap servers (ie, motzarella.org and individual.net) don't do binaries because of the cost involved. For a binary feed you're pretty much looking at the more expensive providers like Supernews or Giganews.

I've been using Google Groups for ages now. There are disadvantages but for the amount I use it, it's fine really.
