I have a couple of NTTP server accounts too. I don't use it much these days because I mostly use a Chromebook. There's not much point in using an NNTP app with the Chromebook since Google Groups works so well.

As far as you requesting that I change the way I post so you can get your precious line wrapping - that's pure vanity on your part. You could pretty much solve all your problems by simply switching to Google Groups. That Agent client program reminds me of the bad old days of computing. We live in the new world and I shall not desperately cling to the past.
