Dave, what usernet group web interface would you recommend?

None. Use a mail/news client (I use Thunderbird, available free; there are
lots of others out there. Pick one you like. Just don't use Micro$oft's
Outlook Express.)

And it's "usenet". Goes back to the first days of the internet way back
when.

Just as a matter of interest David, what exactly do you see as being the
problem with using OE's newsreader client ? I have been posting on usenet
for many years, and have always used OE for posting to and reading from
basic text groups like this one, although I do use xNews for some other
groups, where its 'on-the-fly' decoding abilities are useful.

In all of the time that I have used OE, it has never caused me the slightest
problem. I know people on usenet often say "don't use OE ...", with a dark
sort of tone as though there may be some secret hit sqaud that's gonna come
after you, but I have never managed to get anyone to specify exactly what
dire consequences you are going to suffer by using it ??

Care to elaborate ... ? Just curious ... :-)
