I have Unison. Alas, it has a poor interface (comparing to tin, slrn, mutt, pine) and a lot of bugs. And its support makes me think Panic considers Unison of little importance. The others are all about binary download. Exclusions are Thunderbird and Opera but if I do not use both of them as mail clients it is somewhat strange to use them as newsreaders. Most likely I’ll compile me some text-based client and will run it from terminal. > (Trivia: A never published predecessor to MailMate supported NNTP, but that > code is unfortunately unusable in the current version of MailMate.) > Sic transit gloria mundi.
