fix the news groups so you don't have to relog in again when you change to
another topic. this will remove alot of the server lag caused us all logging in again each time you change topics. finding host connecting connected authorizing connected downloading new messages agent1May 27, 2003, 9:43pm

im using OE also, and it keeps wanting to log in on topic change.
watch the lower left corner, this is where the status is at. [View Quote] weizerMay 28, 2003, 2:04am
I use OE also but sometimes a message can take 15sec before loading, and I
have a cable connection. Not like that for every message but it becomes really anoying. dlp anneMay 28, 2003, 2:33am
Yes, that is yourself reloging in again.
There are times the server just sites at the authorizing stage trying to verify your username and password. [View Quote] bowenMay 28, 2003, 3:53am

OE has problems with loading things from cache and memory. Hence why I
switched. -- --Bowen-- bowenMay 28, 2003, 4:15am

Mozilla. It's a nice application (the default skins are a little crumby
though). Not to mention, Mozilla supports PNG/MNG much better than IE. -- --Bowen-- kahMay 28, 2003, 2:39pm

Hi everyone:
[View Quote] Same with me. Sometimes it lags a little, but then too, so does my ISP's USENET server when I read news from there. Patrick [View Quote] pc hamsterMay 29, 2003, 5:34am

Quite a bite of them. Forte Agent. And XNews, the one that KAH uses
(it's a piece of crap though -- hard as hell to use). Search http://www.sourceforget.net for NNTP clients for windows. -- --Bowen-- bowenJun 4, 2003, 9:16pm

Nevermind, that seemed to be a dead end.
