Sorry, I didn't realize that you were linking to a site. I thought that
was just an example. I've been staring at this computer for too long.
I'll check out the site.

Sorry about that. I started using Pan on Windows and it doens't work
right. Sometimes it deletes characters while I am typing and if I delete
words on the wrong part of the line it destroys the
wrapping. I wanted to stop using Outlook Express. I haven't had good
results with Thunderbird for newsgroups, and Forte Agent had some kind of
problem with the installation so it doesn't work even when I try to
reinstall it. Any recommendations for a better newsreader for Windows?
Pan is fine when I am in Linux but I usually have had to boot into Windows
lately.
