Compact binary disadvantages

Ok, I know this has been discussed before, but I am trying to really get my head around the different newsgroup types. My question is this: besides not being able to use "natural" retention, what else am I giving up with the CB type exactly?? I can still have threading in CB, right? If a n...

Reclaim purged headers

How do headers get purged in UE? Is it different than NewsPro? (I am using compact binary groups). In NP, I use the Purge Deleted Headers command in the Edit menu. This doesn't exist in UE.

Finding out what type a group is

Hi again I guess I will be a pain in the behind with questions while I am getting to grips with UE :) Ok, obviously the newsgroup type (compact binary, msg-id etc.) is the most critical decision when a user subscribes to a newsgroup.

From what I have gathered from the discussions, it overcomes ...

That's actually a very helpful suggestion and one that I didn't think of before. Thanx! I am still puzzled about why this is happening though. I don't remember Newspro doing this before. And the strangest thing is that it started happening on both installations almost at the same time. Could it be t...

Newspro has stopped saving completely

Hi Alex and all, I've been using Newspro for quite a while now on 2 PCs. The last week or so Newspro has stopped saving attachments. The attachments download alright, but then I have to hunt them down in each group and save them manually with Alt-A. This is happening with both Newpro installations o...
