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
