Actually it is very simple. When this NG was established one of the
"rules" was no yenc,plain and simple. Either you choose to follow
the rules or not, no skin off my nose either way. I have downloaded
two free yEnc decoders and neither have worked worth a damn but at
least I tried. As I have broadband, downloading useless posts does
not create a problem; for those for whom it does they can just block
your posts and problem solved.It is not that hard to work it out
either way. FWIW

My big gripe with Yenc is that so many of the files are corrupted in
the process.

maybe you are doing it wrong I have never had a problem with yEnc as I use
xnews



Never a problem with Agent either, Paul. But I don't know if that
suggests a reader problem, an ISP problem, or what--wish I could be of
more help.


Perhaps it is because I'm using "Picture Agent" which is a pretty
ancient program. I like it because it automatically downloads just the
pictures without all the text blather. I only get that when I use T-Bird
or OE.
