Hi Alex,

Yenc 32 files show up with the NTX file entention. So afetr down loading the file you need to run yenc32 to make the files useable. the site is: www.yenc32.com

Anyways, I thought that it would be a great addition to the product if you did the decoding internally. Just a thought.

Yenc decoding and encoding is done internally in Newspro.

The situation you describe happens when a poster cannot post yenc encoded articles properly so it's an error by the actual poster of these files.

He needs to be guided to conform with "yenc standard" posting. I think one way to do it is to tell him to get Yencpost and use it for posting.

This ofcourse aplies only if Yenc32 is the same as the Yenc most ppl know. This might not be the case since there are a few encoding methods whose goal is the same as Yenc, but use somewhat different approach in it and thus are incompatible. If it's different encoding method then the poster is still using a non supported encoding method and your only choice really is to use external decoder.
