Hello Paula,

I find myself in the same case as you. Being a former user of OE5 for
both e-mails & newsgroups, I switched to TB! for e-mails and still
keep OE5 for newsgroups. I agree with you that it is very convenient
to have both functions in the same program.
I have been told by Ritlabs that a newsreader will be implemented in
version 2 during the course of this year. So I am sticking to OE5 to
avoid learning another newsreader.
>From time to time I import my newsgroup messages into TB!. The
inconvenience is that my e-mails are downloaded twice. With OE5 & TB!
BTW does anyone know if OE5 can be prevented from acting as e-mail
program while still being a newsreader?
