Last year when I tried it, it sucked too much. The current version seems ok - I'm using it at work. The "Huh?" was more about you telling me to use a newsreader that will let me respond to your posts in lieu of you not doing funny things to your header. So huh? |

Nobody's explained to him yet that there's an easier way to do things. 2. If he had a Mac, his temper and manners would be much improved. They aren't, ergo he doesn't have a Mac.

Alas, usenet is not. It's a 7-bit medium. All headers must be ASCII. Header titles must be exactly as prescribed. HOWEVER... there are means to communicate and render glyphs outside ASCII. You have some reading to do, but I promise it is rewarding reading. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIME http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2047 -- Michael Press |

A common appliance much cursed by everyone, except those who have the brains and the money to buy a Mac. The last time I looked, Macs continue to be super expensive whereas PCs keeps dropping in price. I have seen Windows 7 Home Premium desktop computers for $300 at Wal-Mart. It is all about money, not brains. Wal-Mart has also put our local bike shop out of business and for the same reason ... price!

Not saying that it isn't. OE is not the best, especially not for nntp. But I have my OE set to accept UTF-8 headers. I can read your posts at home but when I try to reply, it fails telling me the header is too long. Since I use the same news server here as at home, it must be the OE. But a lot of people use OE. |
