Well... I still want OE back <g> All in all though it has some nice
features. One that's handy is the connecting lines that connect parts of
a thread together. OE made it kinda hard to tell who was replying to
what when the threads had a lot of replies to each question (when the
thread "tree" was deep).
It has nice junk filters (that are turned off since I use Mailwasher
<g>)... before turning them off, they worked great <g>.
It's "skinnable" with a few of their "themes". It seems better suited
for offline news than OE is. That may interest some... not me. I read
everything "online".
fwiw, it's windows (groups/mail/messages/etc) are arranged the same as
OE when you load it the first time, you can re-arrange them if you like.
Unlike OE, you can have multiple instances running. That's one feature
I've seen requests for (in OE). I'm not really interested in that
feature. Once in a while I end up with a couple instances running by
accident (mailwasher and clumsy fingers are the culprit). No harm done..
it just takes more room on the taskbar.
fwiw, I briefly tried Agent and it just didn't suit me. Thunderbird's
definitely worth a try.
The one drawback (so far) is that it doesn't currently support multiple
newsgroup accounts on the same server. In OE, I had one msnews acct
where I subscribed to VB Classic groups only. I had another where I
subscribed to "other" groups. Can't do that in Thunderbird.
In OE, I had one account setup on a different news server with a set of
subscribed groups... and another (same server) setup with a set of
subscribed groups. In this case, the only difference was the password I
used to log into these groups. No such support in Thunderbird right now.
