Do you need to decode Yenc files? I use Agent-2. Have for years and love it.
They have Agent-3 now which I tried and did not like so put version 2 back
on. It's a bit hard to configure but once you get it figured out it's great.
Free agent is good but will not decode Yenc files unless they have changed it.

I haven't been that big of an Agent v3 fan myself. They finally added multiple
server configuration support, which I need since so I could access my ISP's news
server and Newsguy, but much of the familiarity is gone. I still use v1.9 since
it supports yEnc so tyhere's not much motivation for me to update. I hear
Thunderbird is good and Xnews also if you have the patience to work with it.
