Boxborough, MA | Usenet..what program for just reading posts? What is a good program to read and post to usenet discussions?
I have newsbin pro but I don't think that is good for writing posts and reading them...only downloading binaries.
Anyone know? I use to use outlook express back in the day but am lost now.
Thanks  |

Forte's Agent is good. I used to use it for reading articles

I always used Outlook Express too, but that was a long time ago.
It worked really well for reading threaded messages. I remember downloading a ton of text posts to my desktop and then running yENC on them to create the file.
Can you post through Google Groups? That always had a reasonably nice interface. |

If you have Opera, you can also just use it's mail/news account to read it. |

Newsguy's XNews has always been the one I used for just reading text based groups. It has an excellent filtering system for weeding out posts from trolls and spammers.
