MesNews kan de verschillende berichten uit usenet groepen lezen als platte tekst of als html. Het programma ondersteunt meerdere servers die vervolgens ook in een boomstructuur weergegeven kunnen worden. Daarnaast worden de standaard decodings ondersteund zoals Base64 en yEncoded. Wie nieuwsgierig is geworden naar het uiterlijk van dit programma kan hier een kijkje nemen. Versie 1.4.1.0 is sinds kort beschikbaar met de volgende veranderingen:
Added:Improved/changed:
- A new counter which counts the number of lines and paragraphs when composing a new message.
- A function that remembers that there are new direct reply's when you are switching to another group and not all the messages were read
- You can set a colour for a synchronized group even when you are in the same group of the tree.
- You can now define the colour and style of a followed message
- A new option to prevent that new messages aren’t automatically shown in the message-tree (uses less CPU)
- When an error occurs by sending a message (because it was refused by the server), you have the possibility to copy this message into drafts to edit them.
- A new security option to block iframes in HTML messages
- A new option to separate groups (see: menu server\Display order of the groups)
- Added the possibility to copy the identity of a group
- Menu server>Actions on the groups of a server; the possibility to mark messages as read and to delete messages on more groups of a server.
- Added a context-menu in the server-tree to insert or remove a dividing line.
- And some little things I’ve forgot to write here (but this are the most important options)
Fixed:
- When composing a new message: A new button to define a identifier of an attachment
- Decoding of flowed with ‘DelSP=yes’
- It’s now not possible to click on a link when you are working in a file
Information:
- Fixed cancelling of sending a message
- Fixed coding/decoding of an subject in UTF-8 on more lines
- Fixed problem with grey buttons if XP mode is not selected (when menu Options/Appearance/Windows XP components format is not checked).
- In contrast with the beta’s the exceptions are not longer managed and the debug is not by default active. De parameters /debug and /exception can be used to show a text-file (debug.txt) and show some exceptions when you are closing MesNews.
- At this moment you aren’t informed about new versions of MesNews.
