   MBNNTP - Am I the only one?

   Hi MBSE Users,   
      
   I was wondering if I'm the only one who uses MBSE NNTP interface for    
   reading and posting?   
      
   I ask because I'm working on enhancements for it and adjusting some of    
   the outputs.  I was toying with the idea of moving away from MBSE to    
   Husky - but found it terribly unstable and completely ugly.  However,    
   the good thing that did come of it was my renewed interest in enhancing    
   the nntp interface to be useable for both Echomail, Local, and Netmail    
   messages.   
      
   I can already read Netmail (in addition to Echos),  still trying to    
   untangle the post code blocks to do some extra interpretation on the    
   text.  (ie.  Accept a "To: line as the fist line of text to address to    
   message to a specific person -- go the idea from JAMNNTP, which btw,    
   crashes miserably when posting from my iPad; it doesn't translate UTF-8    
   usernames into ASCII, killing the JAM header file -- BUT!  MBSE handles    
   this nicely without pain.)   
      
   Alas I ramble.
