Nuntius creates locally stored documents that tracks all of the
newsgroups you've subscribed to.  If you take a look inside the Nuntius
Data Files folder (and the other one called "Nuntius Public Files"),
you'll a list of documents that take the name of the newsgroups you read
on a regular basis.  Nuntius references those documents instead of
consulting the server- it reduces the amount of time it takes to get
article lists incredibly, so I guess you could consider it a side affect
of the tremendous speed with which Nuntius works.

I've made it my newsreader of choice.  I agree with you, it does it a lot
of disk space (my Public Files folder is over 2.4 Meg and growing), but
it's a hell of a lot quicker and more user-friendly than the other ones
I've used.  I wonder if one could AutoDouble the folder to reduce size?

Well, Peter Speck?  What do YOU think???
