eight_sixx Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 I am a long time user of Forte's Agent as a newsreader in Windows. Can anyone recommend a good OSX newsreader (prefer freeware)?

bluedragon1971 Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Thoth is generally regarded as the best general purpose newsreader on OS X. It's not in development anymore, but can be found if you look around. I have tested it and it works fine with OSx86 under Rosetta.

philter Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 Unison. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Does it support yenc decoding? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/2048-nntp-newsreader-anyone/#findComment-14320 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyc Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 Yup it does... it grabs everything I ask it to properly. Awesome program, way better than any of the newsreaders for windows. I especially like the way it groups the posts and sorts the different kinds of files. Only thing is that I have no idea how to get it to show over 10 days of headers.

phoebus Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 Many Mac users swear by MacSOUP - it runs on Rosetta. I'd like something like Fortitude Dialog, by far the best windows reader in my opinion.

lamer0 Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 Macsoup is strictly for non-binary groups. Just a heads up. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/2048-nntp-newsreader-anyone/#findComment-14605 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about 'way better' than anything though ...Newspro is unbelievable.

bluedragon1971 Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 Thoth leakes ram left and right in rosetta. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I didn't seem to have any problems with it, but I've only ran it for an hour or so.
