Default Why a newsreader?

Uh, a free newsreader comes with Windows.

I'm using Outlook Express, augmented by OE-Quotefix.


No longer. Now you get Windows Live Mail 2011 and it is a poor
newsreader. Well, it reads OK, but responding is not so hot. I'm
using the 2010 version and it is a bit better than my old OE, but
they "improved" it to be about useless for newsgroups.


I tried "Windows Mail" Which seems to work similar, but not the same as OE. I
have avoided "live mail"
