OT Pan Newsreader

For various reasons I've been using Pan - how do I get it to filter by
replies to my messages?

 

With difficulty IME. I stopped using Pan cos it just dunt seem to cut
it any more. YMMV

Select "Show only new articles" *and* "show replies to my articles"

 

Where's the "Show Replies to my Articles"?

 

What do you use for Linux?

 

Filters icons, 4th along, hover over the buttons and it tells you what
they are for

 

No it doesn't it says "Match my articles" and shows only my original posts.

 

Compared to Xananews on windows it's shit but there appears to be so
little available on linux.

Mozilla News doesn't seem to have go to my replies either.

 

The headers for catmans post show Mozilla Thunderbird.
I use Knode under KDE on SuSE 9.1 ( much furtled with ). Knode has an own
posts filter, so may be worth trying.

Knode also makes bozo binning a trivial task. One of the filters is 'Do not
show idiot', which I quite like

 

Worrabout slrn?

 

Thunderbird. Best of a bad lot on this distro (getting phase 3 Centrino
laptops working was *interesting*) Ubuntu was the only one I could make
work quickly and that has it's own software repository. I *could*
install Knode again, but it I would have to hack things or compile from
source (I suspect)

Thunderbird is OK, as a mail client as well.

You:- Pan/0.14.2.91 (As She Crawled Across the Table (Debian GNU/Linux))

Me :- Pan/0.14.0 (I'm Being Nibbled to Death by Cats!)

Looks like they made an improvement Drop the developers a line, they
may help.

 

I've not got that option. Think I will stick with the current version

I can't be arsed compiling it for Solaris (cue someone showing me a
pre-compiled version )

 

Why on earth have they made something worse?

If it had the ability to filter based on replies I'd be able to make some
use of it. If it could search/filter/do stuff based on the content of the
message rather than just the subject or references that would be bloody
useful - and fairly obvious.

 

We're back to politics again?

 

<whispers>
have you tried Solaris ?
</w>

 

That's Solaris for you

 

Yep, I have heard all the jokes. A bit of tuning is allowed you know.

 

yer, but this is for non Sun kit

 

What? Replace it with a linux box? ;-)
