You enter the host name on the second panel of the New Account Wizard.
The second panel of the New Account Wizard looks like this:

When you first try to use the news server, Thunderbird will prompt
you for the username and password. The pop-up prompt has a check-box
to remember the password. Put a check-mark in this check-box.

Also see this Thunderbird help page:
<https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/creating-newsgroup-account>

Ask for Thunderbird help in the new Thunderbird newsgroup
"alt.comp.software.thunderbird". You will almost certainly need to
update your newsgroup directory first, before you will be able to
see the newsgroup "alt.comp.software.thunderbird".

The host or news server used to be news60.forteinc.com I think.
Then it changed to news80.forteinc.com <-- the way it is in Agent now.

Has it now changed to news.forteinc.com?
