XanaNews Newsreader
===================
XanaNews is a free, powerful, fully featured NNTP client (newsreader) for
Microsoft Windows. It is written in Delphi. The original creator was
Colin Wilson.
Here's what it does so far...
------------------------------
* Support for Multiple News (NNTP) Servers.
* Multiple threaded engine. Supports three threads per news server so
you can simultaneously download group lists, message headers and messages
for multiple servers.
* Threaded multicolumn tree message display. Display messages in thread
or chronological order. Sort threads or messages by date, size, author
or subject.
* Displays NNTP and MIME images inline, building them up as they arrive.
* Save images and other binary attachments.
* Powerful message deleting feature. Delete messages that don't match your
criteria.
* Threads that contain messages to you are displayed highlighted.
* Intelligent resume/cancel button. When it's red you can cancel the
selected operation. When it's green you can resume after network
failures, and when it's grey you can't click it!
* Batch mode. Define batches of message retrieval operations. A single
batch can work across multiple newsgroups - even on multiple servers!
* Both images and other binary attachments can now be saved.
* Powerful configurable message filters can be created for individual
newsgroups, or all newsgroups on a server.
* Decode UUE, Base64 and yEncoded messages.
* SSL Support
* Supports posting multiple attachments
* Integrates with ISpell spell checker.
* Applications settings can be stored in a XML file instead of the
Windows registry. Simply start XanaNews with the following command
line parameter: XanaNews.exe -XMLSettings=xana.xml
