I agree - I've been using leafnode a while and it's working pretty
well.

Only seriously annoying thing is the complete directory structure it
creates under /var/spool/news, not just the groups you read but the
whole lot. Yes I know that makes it easier, but it wouldn't be that
hard to do it otherwise I suspect. Oh well.

Didn't have any problems with Netscape (except when I stupidly decided
to pick up some binary groups, bad mistake :), but I use gnus now.

      - Justin
