Free Newsreader?

Postby James » Sat 15 Sep, 2007 11:44 pm

I see that Forte's Free Agent is no longer available for download. Instead all that is offered is a free download of their Agent for which you will eventually have to pay $30. I'm looking for a free newsreader and I stumbled upon the Nomad Reader. You can find it here: http://www.nomadnews.com/

Does anyone have any experience or information about this newsreader?

Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Thanks.

I assume you are referring to newsgroup reader.

I can you can use Thunderbird or SeaMokey.

Thanks, Antony. Right now I'm using the newsreader that comes with Eudora and in another thread I've mentioned that it doesn't appear to be operating in the same manner as the older Thunderbird did. That is, it is not showing the entire thread to which I respond. It simply shows the original poster's name... a line down the side where his post "should have been" and beneath this "my" response. I've not done anything to the settings so I'm confused as to why this is happening. Therefore I was wondering about a different newsgroup reader and wondered if anyone had any experience with this Nomad reader. Thanks.
