I just sent a b*tch letter to charter about the newsgroups. They changed
servers about a week or so ago, and now the groups are always messed up,
old messages showing as new (repeatedly), "no such article" messages, etc.

I'm using the same setting and stuff in netscape as I did with their old
servers, so its not on my end.

None I have tried came close to the convenience and clarity that OE
provides. I hope Charter can keep its act together.



Have you tried Agent? It's free. Once I took a look at it, I never
went back to OE.


I'll second that although I did not like the limitations of free agent
and bought the full version which is not expensive.


Also, here is a link to a free news provider. May be helpful if
Charter keeps having problems.



Link??

I did play with Agent a little last night. Not bad, and it deserves another
look.

You can read them using google, www.google.com.

However they are upgrading their user interface so that it is much
harder
than it was last week.
