Newsreader: Newscoaster v.1.53 released
« on: July 15, 2002, 08:14:50 PM »
Version 1.53 of the Amiga newsreader Newscoaster has been released featuring lots of improvements and bugfixes.

Source: GFXBASE

Here are the changes:

* New option to allow using multiple newsservers for posting; if you've set up a non-default newsserver for a group (under Newsgroups / Advanced Settings), you can tick 'Post with this server', and then any messages posted to that group will be posted to the newsserver for that group.
* In threaded view, opening a thread causes the entire thread to expand.
* Clicking on column headings to change sorting now works in threaded mode too.
* Faster threading.
* Download from groups in a more sensible order to avoid repeatedly connecting to a newsserver.
* New option to delete all duplicated messages in a group (under Messages / Permanently Delete).
* Bug fix; in v1.52, messages wouldn't get deleted from the deleted folder (they'd still be on the hard disk).
* Bug fix; bugs in base64 encoding and decoding.
* Bug fix; in threaded mode, not all messages were getting displayed.
* Bug fix; various other problems related to threaded mode.
* Bug fix; 'Groups Manager' under Program Settings was always displaying groups for the default newsserver.
* Bug fix; if you switched between two groups on two newsserver in online mode, it would fetch from the wrong newsserver.
* Bug fix; was leaving a space at end of lines when quoting messages.
