Possibly slightly off-topic: Are there any free (as in speech) web-based NNTP front-ends that are relative ly up to date, and still maintained? On my home server I can pull up my email, texts, and RSS feeds in a web browser. It would be nice to do the same with newsgroups, instead of having to run Pan (even though I get the same feeling of nostalgia from its UI as the author does).



Yes--the DLang forums are what I'd consider the best.

Anything wrong with Mozilla Thunderbird?


Only that it's not installed on every computer I use :)
