Usenet Explorer

Over the last few weeks UNS has had problems. Check their network page here:

It's still happening for me today. Just keep trying them and they eventually go through.

If I have two servers downloading headers will each server store its own set of headers or will the program combine them and only store one set and thus 1/2 the space?

I created a new group #xpat, opened and get new headers. The dialog comes up and I put in *proposed* for subject, entered the newsgroup and set it off. On both UNS servers it returns nothing. I know there is a discussion thread there so I broke out xnews, did the same thing and it returns 46 message...

Hi Alex, <snip> In a related note, is there any way to automatically download and save (ala Alt-K) incomplete messages? I can only download and then save it manually. <snip> JK With the advent of par2 it would be very convenient and practical if NewsPro had the ability to download and save partial ...

What is this used for?

I don't see why pressing enter would increase the number of options exponentially. Let me try to explain how I use the program and see if anyone else does the same. Most often I download clusters of files using Alt-K to download and save the files. There are times when I want to preview the file in...

What firewall software works with newspro?[/quote]

Kerio 2.1.5 here. Never one issue with anything.

When I press enter or double-click on a normal thread message it fetches the text and displays it, however, when I press enter or double-click on a NFO it fetches the NFO and displays it as an icon with subject.nfo. I then have to double-click the subject.nfo to view the NFO. Do you think you could ...

[quote="alex"]binary newsgroups don't have threads[/quote] Alex, there are often long threads to binary posts. While most of them revolve around requests for reposts, pars, etc, there is still quite a bit of discussion on how to get xyz to work or what codec was used etc. I hope you do not...

[quote="dt"]Hi I've been using NewsPro for a couple of years and have been very happy with it. Just got back into using it again and installed the latest version. I've set up a clean instance, with four news servers (newscene, easynews, giganews and newshosting). This instance has a single...

From what I remember, it downloads them but does not auto save them. You will have to specifically tell the program to save attachments.

one question though: Since you implemted this, in version's 7.13 en 7.14 (which i've tested) the Taskmanager isn't working the way it should. The progression bars for the segments that are downloaded don't show the progress anymore. Also the "Time Left" display doesn't make any sense anym...

Thanks Alex, this will be a good addition to NewsPro. Looking forward
to a new version.

How would I tell newspro to download all new headers at exactly 4:30PM every day. No more, no less, just that exact time. I'd like to have it download headers and be done just before I get home from work. I saw the auto download every X minutes, but that isn't working because when I close newspro it...
