About

YA-NewsWatcher 5.0.1 has just been released. It adds support for "kept" articles and offline use; improved, indented reference-based threading of articles (or optionally no threading at all); better handling of poor network connections and the ability to resume incomplete multi-part binary downloads; the option to use a second news server connection for queued transfers; auto-saving of the queued transfers list; much faster binary decoding; plus numerous other improvements and sundry bug fixes. It's a recommended update for all 4.x users. Version 5.0.1 includes a work-around for a problem with obsolete news server software that doesn't support 4 digit years in the NEWGROUPS command, and adds new commands for showing or hiding read and kept posts in subject windows. YA-NewsWatcher is a powerful, highly customizable, and free online and offline Usenet newsreader application for Macintosh. It features background and possibly deferred downloading or sending of text and binary posts with built-in encoding and decoding; styled text, image, and movie viewing; flexible, complete, and powerful article filtering and sorting and newsgroup searches; and multiple character set support. It requires System 8.5 or later.
