Subject: OT: Newsreader for Windows
I am hesitant to post this because I don't want to start a massive debate,
but
what Newsreader programs do people use on Windows?
I use Thunderbird. It seems pretty competent once you have configured the
tool bars.
There is OE Classic which I havn't tried.
https://www.oeclassic.com/
but it seems like it might be usable...
I don't want to use Google Groups because it wants
me to sign in to
Google.
I am generally reluctant to use a browser based reader
because it will
want to
track me. So I am after an installable client.
Worse than that, its not a great news reader. It doesn't carry some news
groups because they have been spammed, usually via google groups.
Thanks
Rob
