I have been using Thunderbird for my home email client and news reader for a long time. Ever since I loaded FC6, things have been going downhill reading news. I have one newsgroup account through the ISP and one through usenetserver.com. The usenetserver.com account requires a login and password, the ISP (Cox) does not. The usenetserver account usually gets a password failed message and then makes me reenter the long login and password. Often, it just gets errors connecting with the server. At first, I suspected the server site, but a program I wrote which uses NNTP to download files off newsgroups connects just fine. I tried deleting my mail and news password file and rebuilding it, but that did not help. One options is to bring up Wire Shark and try to track down the problem. The other it to find a different newsgroup reader. Most of the time at home I am looking at either comics or the railroad pictures newsgroups so binary processing is a required. Any recommendations of news readers you like?
