Current description is
{
Problems with posting to or reading newsgroups, adding news servers. If you are having problems adding a newsgroup or a news server, you should choose the "Subscribe" component from the list.
}

But there is no 'Subscribe' component in 'MailNews Core'.

Build config isn't the place to get this description changed. Moving to more relevant place.

Cc'ing folks to get some suggestions.

Since "News" is a fairly ambiguous word these days, I'd propose that we start by changing the component name to Networking: NNTP.  For a description, how about:

"Problems with reading, posting, or subscribing to newsgroups (also sometimes referred to as USENET)."
