Previously I wrote about trying mozilla thunderbird.... sorry, it's just too much hassle for the little diff between it and OE.
Xnews is far better as it allows multiple servers and identities.
I may continue to use Thunderbird for mail
In it's default state, maybe, but Thunderbird is a far more powerful program than OE.
So does Thunderbird...
Xnews is a good newsreader too. Whatever you're happiest with.
Huh??? I have twelve email addresses from Cox and Gmail on my Thunderbird as well as 4 separate news server accounts. Each news server has the posibility to have totally different information for it.
Since this NG is about cars, not browsers, I will note that I never used my Thunderbird to get mail. My mailbox is only 20' from the garage. ;-)
Garth, If you could tell me how to use Thunderbird to get onto a Verizon news server that requires a login and password, that'd be excellent. It doesn't require SSL, but I haven't been able to get it to work at all. I don't see anywhere to put a password.
JS
You set up the server and email addresses and when it connects the first time you'll get a prompt box for a login and password. You should also have an option for TB to remember yout name and password if you want it to.
I'm using Vbulletin :) check this out for an example
