Good newssreader program?

Postby Darkbane848 » Sat Jul 11, 2009 6:14 am

Does anyone know of a good newsreader program to use with newsgroups containing only text messages? I've tried searching, but most of the ones I've found are primarily for binary groups, and I'm not interested in those at all. And the few I have found wasn't really all that good at all.

Agent costs USD29.00 and I am very happy with it.

SeaMonkey can do usenet as can Thunderbird but I don't use them.

http://www.newsgroupservers.net/usenet-newsgroup-reader has a list.

If you do not want to do binary groups, then don't subscribe to them. Newsreaders will only look for messages in those groups to tell them to go to.

I have Agent set up so that the only binary groups I subscribe to is alt.binaries.pictures.anime and alt.binaries.pictures.manga

There is also Google Groups if you a totally web-based exprience.

Thanks. I'll try agent then.

It's not really that I don't want binary groups. It's just that the free server I'm using doesn't appear to have any binary groups.
