of encrypting entries so that they cant be viewed without downloading
some other crap to view them ....whats the purpose of it ..what purpose
does it serve besides ****ing off those who cant view the pics i really

I don't like it either. But after missing heaps of posts, I gave up and
ended up downloading a small program from the sight attached below. It
creates a shortcut on the desk top called 'OeyEnc Loader' which opens
'Outlook Express' and allows it to read yEnc post so long as the yEnc is
written into the subject heading.

This is exactly the same I am using, however, the problem with the most
recent YEnc posts lies within you last sentence, "so long as the yEnc is
written into the subject heading".
Unfortunately, the person posting it (oh so wiesly chosing yEnc as a handle)
ignored this most important rule about yEnc.


It's not required at all. A decent newsreader will decode yenc
without the word in the subject.


It was intended that way by the programmer who
'developed' yEnc, Juergen Helbing ... but not all
software's followed what he intended ...

If I ever post in yEnc, I'd look for software which
is compliant ... if it's still around ;-)


I do not believe in rules. It works for me without the rule, so
there!
