Yes, thank you. It came through OK. I see that you use Outlook
Express. I still use Netscape 4.78 to access newsgroups. It's a little
old, but I like the way it handles long threads.

I've forgotten how 4.7 worked for newsgroups...its been a long time ago.
But it reached the point of being outdated for handling the web.

Using T'bird 2.something here and it seems to do everything with no
thought required. yEnc, etc.

They seem to have taken a wrong turn somewhere with T'bird 3. Its really
klunky and confusing. I haven't messed with it lately (its on my laptop)
but I never could find the route to 'Subscribe to Newsgroups'.

Try Thunderbird 2.*, Mike, as a replacement to Netscape for mail and
newsgroups.

I have the latest Thunderbird installed on this machine, mostly for the Win
7 bootup (since it doesn't have Outlook Express for e-mail). I have yet to
make the NG's work on it. Es muy estranjo.
