Hi, I have done some major updates with my computer and software, and as a last thing I would also like to get UE working again. I am running UE through Wine on a Gentoo Linux system. Everything looks ok superficially until I want to download with UE. A header download often does not even start (alt...

I do not understand how UE marks and memorizes certain bodies as downloaded. A downloaded single body is marked with a light blue icon with grey stripes, downloaded partial bodies of a collection are marked with green icons with grey stripes, and downloaded collections are marked with yellow icons w...

Maybe the non-saving of the status was really related to some Wine errors that I was encountering. These errors are rare now, but they happen once every few days. I have checked in log.txt that --Logout-- --Login-- (v1.3.1) are generated. BTW, I am attaching a trace of the errors that happen infrequ...

I am not impressed by "Auto Unpack", it does not handle the unpacking correctly for some files. In fact, "Auto Unpack" shows error messages while other programs can handle the same files. There is another automatic unpacking, which may not be much better than "Auto Unpack&qu...

Is there a way to gracefully start and stop UE, meaning that the tasks will resume where they have been stopped? Just some observations: 1) It seems that "Save all" does not save the entire status. At least I have lost once a big part of the task list. The lost part was added to a previous...

Ok, I have learnt that the sub-icons on the right lower side of the main icons correspond to the file type (rar, zip, etc.). What about the sub-icons that appear sometimes at the left lower side? Thank you.

For collections, what is the difference between

1) a blue box with a blue plus sign inside
2) a blue box with a grey plus sign inside
3) a grey box with a blue plus sign inside

I am not sure if the other combination that I have not mentioned exists.

I am getting lost more and more with all the options in UE that are not yet described. Could you please explain the flow of what I need to do to automate the download and saving of attachements from entire newsgroups or entire folders of newsgroups? I can manage to download all attachements manually...

Thank you, I have downloaded version 1.3.1 and I am using it right now. I did not check yet on the remove directory bug. But the icon for "open default save directory" in the menu bar won't open save directory. A menu is opening for folder selection when "downloading and saving attach...

To summarize the problems/solutions of UE version 1.3 under a standard Wine version 0.9.12 environment without any additional dll files: Problem 1: "Icon in system tray" entry in the "Edit" menu not working. When that functionality is enabled, UE creates a separate system tray so...

The explanations in the "Selected Topics" are very helpful. However, there are at least 4 types of "sub-icons" (small boxes at the lower right side of the icon) which are not mentioned yet and which I do not understand. In the help menu, there also could be an entry for a popup w...

Yes, you are right. When I remove the "Autoclear" in UE general properties, the directory remains there. When I start "clear now", the directory vanishes as well. If that is the problem, we should be able to reproduce the Wine problem with a few lines of source code. Would you be...

Something weird going on. The Rt directory is also erased even if the user running Wine does not have the permissions to do so.

I have tried the following: 1) I have added manually the missing Rt directory to the old setup and a subsequent download worked ok. 2) I removed the entire application data directory and installed it fresh with the program that you have mailed. The program was causing the same error, no difference w...

For the other problem with the libxml2 library, see the related discussion in the Wine bugtracker:
