I use Google Groups, as since I switched to the Mac I still miss
Outlook Express's newsreader (terrible, I know) and haven't found a
newsreader to my tastes yet, but Google Groups is fast becoming
useless for posting anything - I often have to try 5 or 6 times to
post, each time it waits an eternity then times out, and after 5 or 6
attempts it just gives up and grays out the Send button. Grrr... Any
Mac people on here can suggest a good newsreader for me??


Not on a Mac, but this page lists some possibilities for you:

Wow, you guys are too helpful!! Thanks to all the others who have
posted replies!!!

I have been using Macs for a number of years now, and (apologies to
the poster who suggested this) I have no desire to get another
PeeCee,what with viruses and all that like I went to Mac to get away
from :-) IIRC when I originally looked at newsreaders I was more into
the binary newsgroups, and I disliked the newsreaders I tried at the
time for the purpose of saving binaries..

I will have a look tonight (using the crappy work PeeCee at the
moment) and see how I get on. Anything's got to be better than this!!
