David, MTN is a fine newsreader for OS X.
That may very well be - I know nothing about MTN.
But saying it's a fine newsreader seems inconsistent with
Virgil's statement "MT_Newswatcher does
not display the entire thread, nor allow easy access to it".
It does not automatically display an entire thread, and while access to
it is possible, it is not trivial.
As one normally does not need an entire thread, but only the last post,
the other advantages of MTN outweigh that minor disadvantage.
That does seem a severe limitation to me. I very often use Agent
to browse back through a thread, often even when I have already
read all the messages in it.
Until recently, it was considered good newsnet manners to include
relevant bits of prior posts into one's own post to avoid need for any
such backthreading.
