That's a tricky question to answer until you have experienced a
'proper' or 'dedicated' newsreader. But Outlook Express and Win Live
only have partial support for newsreading so the word 'proper' is
appropriate here. A newsreader should assemble multi posts for you,
it should allow multiple pictures to be saved to your chosen folder
and it should allow multiple pics to be selected from a folder and
posted easily. Now I require yEnc encoding/decoding too so OE is often
unsuitable but a dedicated newsreader handles all this and more.

This was posted using OE6 which is great for text messages and OK for
the odd picture download but if you want to download a series it's a
real pain.

I use Xnews,

its free and does the job but there are plenty
of free newsreaders out there. Do try one you'll be glad you took the
time to learn how to use it.





Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!! Been using it *without complaint* for about 20 years!

How many other programs are useful beyond 3-5 years?
