Hi,

I have been using Thunderbird as my newsreader for years but just found out that 
I can longer post with version 102.8.0 (64-bit) as it crashes when I click on 
"send".  It was a very simple posting to the test account with the subject 
"test" and the body containing "123".  I have since done a test posting via the 
web interface http://news.alaska-software.com (which is what I am using for this 
posting)

I also tried installing Windows Live Mail on my Windows 11 laptop but it does 
not "want" to install.

Are others having problems with Thunderbird?  What other news readers might I 
consider?  Tried Agent years ago but preferred Thunderbird.

Thanks... Jonathan

I've been using Xnews for well over 20 yrs. No longer supported but it 
works fine. You can download from here: https://secure.xb2.net/xnews.zip
