Has this been done yet? Bit of an improvement, especially the 'Mark all as read' button.
Krusty wibbled forthrightly: Not yet, but it looks like it's screwed up Hog's "Anyone around Bourne End/Tring?" post.
Completely. Any posts through the new interface don't have a 'References' header, so they appear as new threads rather than replies. I've raised it as a bug.
I tried it before Christmas and it was awful. I can't remember exactly what was bad now but it was generally crap.
It is vastly better for reading, mainly because it does actually remember what you've read now, & lets you mark all as read (which is pretty vital when you have to switch between a proper usenet reader & GG). But not including the references header in posts is a pretty major fail, & makes it unusable for usenet groups.
I'm still sometimes using the old interface[1], and I'd say it's also "unusable for usenet groups". If you're some sort of fanny. [1] I'm really sick of Agent's over-complexity.
I thought it was a bit far for you. I wouldn't really ask anyone to look much past their own town, but cheers anyway.
Pissed me off when they changed the controls menu listings from the ancient one I was using (ver 1.8 or something) to this one (ver 4.2). Apart from that, I tend to run it just the same as I always did, so no biggie. I don't make much use of the advanced controls anyway, but on occasion they're very useful.
