Author newsreader?

Hi All,

Ran into a problem with my Linux box - I'm stuck using XP for the
short term. Seriously weird question of the week -- Do you know of a
windows newsreader that offers the flexibility of Pan? The features
I'm looking for include:

1. ability to control the X-Newsreader header
2. ssl would be a definate plus


I understand that Pan is an "Agent" clone but in this case -- the
clone has more features than the original. Any recommendations would
be appreciated.....

Have you tried using a cd based distro such as the mandriva one or kububtu?

As others have told you, use Pan for Windoze.

Why is this important to you? Trying to hide something?
