History

Version 1.0

  • NewsGate v1.0 is a completely different program from v0.8. It has been rewritten from scratch and it has too many new fetures to describe them all. I'll tell you only it has a new visual interface and configuration program, antispam features, auto dialup and a new poll routines that grants speeds that can be twice higher than 0.8.
  • Also it's now public domain and no longer shareware.

Version 1.0g1 -> 1.0g2 - 28/06/1998

  • help file
  • No +0000 timezone was added in Date field in countries with 0 TimeZone
  • If subject begins with "Re:" and there's no data to fill the References field, the "Re:" will be stripped - some servers require that
  • Added the "Import" feature in News Server configuration to allow importing NEWS.RC files
  • Added FSC-0035 feature: you can now reply to a gated message directly to your UUCP gateway!
  • [NG10G2.ZIP NewsGate v1.0 gamma 2]
