Need help in choosing a newsreader



Hello all,

I need to find a newsreader that:

a. Works under Windows (XP and up),

b. Is GUI-based, not like rn, trn and so on,

c. Can supports a Russian 8-bit encoding not only
in article body but also in the Subject head-
er.

I was quite amazed to find out that neither
XNews nor Outlook Express are capable of post-
ing articles with titles in Russian corectly.
They come out as sequesnces of quesion marks,
one per symbol, no matter what encoding is
chosen. Of course, I might have failed to
confugure them properly, in which case advice
will be welcome.

Could you please recommend to me such a reader?

Anton

P.S.: I had also posted this to
alt.comp.software.newsreaders only to find
that that group is almost dead...
.
